Village Voice
Based on Graham Greene's 1938 novel of the same name, and directed by John Boulting...this superb picture discloses with penetrating clarity an emotional street life teeming beneath the veneer of amusement park gaiety.

MUBI
4 stars out of 5 -- Richard Attenborough snatches the plaudits as Pinkie, but he's well served by a supporting cast boasting Carol Marsh's naive, beguiled Rose...
Empire
Anyone interested after seeing this film [the 2011 version] should go straight to the 1947 original and the uncanny way in which the steadily decent and amiable Attenborough was so scary.

The New Republic
4 stars out of 4 -- [T]he film shows British cinema in its darkest vintage: an evocation of a dangerous, moth-eaten, but oddly glamorous bygone world.
Uncut
Brighton Rock is disappointing and difficult to follow. Those who have not read the book will be completely at sea, and those who have will be irritated at the tricks played with a superb story.

Monthly Film Bulletin
Rating: 5/5 --
John Boulting's adaptation of Graham Greene's classic novel stakes its claim as one of the darkest films ever to be made on these shores.
