Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 9/10 --
It is a film that somehow started Film Noir and yet was also its peak. It is a film that should be beloved by all, not just Film Studies tutors.

The Maltese Falcon is the first crime melodrama with finish, speed and bang to come along in what seems ages.

Huston knows just what he is doing all the time... How nice to be a little behind the director instead of, as normally, ten minutes ahead of him.

Esquire Magazine
This still rates as one of the very best crime-and-mystery jobs Hollywood has ever offered.

Maclean's Magazine
Frighteningly good evidence that the British (Alfred Hitchcock, Carol Reed, et al.) have no monopoly on the technique of making mystery films.

The Maltese Falcon feels evergreen, not so much in style or attitude but in mood.
