"When I read the synopsis for this movie, I thought it would be a dark and brooding drama. But this film turned out to be quite the opposite. The plot is a thrilling adventure. The main character is witty, charming, and bright. He is falsely accused of murder, yet tries to pass on vital information from a spy to a secret destination in Europe. He runs into obstacles to his escape, sometimes serious, and at other times humorous. I highly recommend it."

"I didn’t find this film quite as thrilling as Hitchcock’s other films. The premise is interesting, but I found the finished product to be quite dull. I did enjoy how the film ended where it started and how that played into the plot twist."
