United States | Chicago Tribune | "Trains are perfect settings for murder mysteries and thrillers. The best of them is Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes" | POS |
United States | The New Yorker | "It is directed with such skill and velocity that it has come to represent the quintessence of screen suspense." | POS |
United States | San Francisco Chronicle | "The picture could easily have slipped into pure melodrama, but the blend of comedy, sophistication and political intrigue, as well as excellent character development, puts it in a class by itself." | POS |
United States | The New York Times | "If it were not so brilliant a melodrama, we should class it as a brilliant comedy." | POS |
United Kingdom | Time Out | "Funny, creepy (in a way already peculiar to Hitchcock) and always entertaining, both in the moment and in the realisation that you’re enjoying a particularly witty and playful script" | POS |
United States | Variety | "The story [from The Wheel Spins by Ethel Lina White] is sometimes eerie and eventually melodramatic, but it’s all so well done as to make for intense interest" | POS |
United Kingdom | BBC | "A crisply satisfying tale of espionage from cinema's master of suspense." | POS |
United Kingdom | Empire | "Enduringly enjoyable Hitchcock classic" | POS |
