Dr. Mabuse, the Gambler Ratings & Reviews
Midwest Film Journal
Joshua Polanski
[Dr. Mabuse, the Gambler is] one of cinema's great looking glasses: The viewer will see what they want.
From the Front Row
Mattie Lucas
Lang managed to create one of the screen's most indelible villains in the form of Dr. Mabuse (are there any eyebrows in all of cinema as expressive of those of Rudolf Klein-Rogge?)
LarsenOnFilm
Josh Larsen
...a bit unwieldy in terms of structure, but it's worth the sit for the eventual flashes of Lang's visual genius.
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
Visions, sets and even words come alive in Lang's epic
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Though disjointed and poorly paced and the plot makes little sense, there are inspirational moments throughout.
MovieMartyr.com
Jeremy Heilman
One of the silent era's best and most exciting epics, the hyper-modern Dr. Mabuse, The Gambler has scarcely aged a day in nearly ninety years.
Variety
Variety Staff
The best moments are achieved by the conflict between Mabuse and the attorney, Von Wenk (Bernhard Goetzke), who is trying to uncover him.
Classic Film and Television
Michael E. Grost
Uneven but sometimes outstanding film.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Straightforward enough -- but also unique enough -- to provide an excellent primer to Lang's early work.
Slant Magazine
Keith Uhlich
This Mabuse has only pretensions to myth; he's as mortal as they come and Lang's film slowly (very slowly) leads him down a Fibonacci-spiraled path to the one true salvation--insanity.
DVDJournal.com
Mark Bourne
In Europe Mabuse is as familiar an icon of horror as Count Dracula or Frankenstein's Monster. It began here, with Dr. Mabuse, der Spieler ('...the Gambler').
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
Plays like the stream of a not very pleasant consciousness.
