Dial M for Murder Ratings & Reviews
Slant Magazine
Rob Humanick
In Alfred Hitchcock's Dial M for Murder, even the innocent have poker faces.
TIME Magazine
The fun of Dial M lies in its duel of wits...
Village Voice
B. Kite
Dial M is less a filmed play than a highly cinematic investigation of theatricality.
Variety
Variety Staff
Dial M remains more of a filmed play than a motion picture, unfortunately revealed as a conversation piece about murder which talks up much more suspense than it actually delivers.
TV Guide
Lower case Hitch, but diverting and sleek.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
The screenplay tends to constrain rather than liberate Hitchcock's thematic thrust, but there is much of technical value in his geometric survey of the scene and the elaborate strategies employed to transfer audience sympathy among the main characters.
Movie Metropolis
John J. Puccio
While it's true that Hitchcock left most of the play's dialogue intact and kept the single setting of the play's apartment, he did quite a bit more to bring the story to life.

David Bezanson
Critics seem to prefer the more theatrical, psychological melodramas to the brainy whodunits. But pay no attention - this film is definitely a classic
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Mildly enjoyable.
Kalamazoo Gazette
James Sanford
Not first-class Hitchcock, but not bad, either
Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL)
Jeffrey Westhoff
This staid melodrama falls far below Hitchcock's standards.
New York Times
Bosley Crowther
[Hitchcock] tried once before, in Rope, to build up a whole continuous drama in one set. He wasn't as successful in that venture. Dial M has all the space it needs.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
Was by far the most visually compelling of studio stereoscopic movies.
