United States	Bosley Crowther The New York Times	"The script and the actors keep things popping, in a fast, slick, sophisticated vein"	POS
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"Hitchcock at his most witty, elegant and insouciant (…) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
Ireland	Tara Brady Irish Times	"The film is among the breeziest of the master’s better-known works (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Paul Taylor Time Out	"One of the most lightweight (and not even particularly deceptively so) of Hitchcock's comedy-thrillers"	POS
United States	Heather Boerner Common Sense Media	"As always, you have to admire Hitchcock's pacing. It's quick without being rushed. 'To Catch a Thief' is an especially good introduction to Hitchcock for teens"	POS
United States	Fernando F. Croce Slant	"A svelte confection with perverse depths (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United Kingdom	William Thomas Empire	"Lesser Hitch, but still superb entertainment (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
