Patterns Ratings & Reviews
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
The film's uncompromising look at boardroom bloodletting remains relevant.
Midwest Film Journal
Nick Rogers
Although it claims credible paternal rights for decades of boardroom melodrama and still carries a flame with strong performances, 1956's "Patterns" is but a controlled burn that struggles to transcend its proscenium roots on a larger screen and canvas.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Myles Standish
A strongly made, well-knit, and absorbing drama.
Battleship Pretension
Craig Schroeder
Patterns succeeds most as a showcase for its actors.
Groucho Reviews
Peter Canavese
The main draw remains Serling, whose story seems every bit as relevant-indeed, more so-today. There is efficiency but also music in his theatrical language... [Blu-ray]
Film Threat
Matthew Sorrento
Depicts a call of humanity caught in a competitive world.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It's a forceful melodrama, that takes the viewer into the pits of a big corporation's board room politics, backstabbing, and the tough way of doing business.
