Claire Trevor won a Supporting Oscar for playing the alcoholic mistress of Edward G. Robinson's gangster in John Huston's taut crimer starring Bogart.

Rating: 2.5/5 --
The script prepared by Mr. Huston and Richard Brooks was too full of words and highly cross-purposed implications to give the action full chance.

New York Times
Rating: 3.5/4 --
Trapped in a country estate by an impending storm, a mobster attempts to lay low before escaping from the police, but takes a risky gambit holding Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall hostage.

Cinema Sight
Although the characters are basically stereotypes, they are lent the gift of life by a superlative cast.
Time Out
Emphasis is on tension in the telling, and effective use of melodramatic mood has been used to point up the suspense.

Rating: 8/10 --
It's pure irony that perhaps the objective best Bogart and Bacall film has their least satisfying onscreen relationship.

The Retro Set
A little windy and rhetorical for my taste, but still one of John Huston's best efforts.

Description by OLDIES.com:
A hurricane swells outside, but it's nothing compared to the storm within the hotel at Key Largo. There, sadistic mobster Johnny Rocco (Edward G. Robinson) holes up – and holds at gunpoint hotel owner Nora Temple (Lauren Bacall), her invalid father-in-law (Lionel Barrymore) and ex-GI Frank McCloud (Humphrey Bogart). McCloud's the one man capable of standing up against the belligerent Rocco. But the postwar world's realities may have taken all the fight out of him.
