5/5
"Jimmy Stewart never did finer work, and Hitchcock's masterpiece, though its meaning may be lost on many, reveals a man at his most obsessed."  Filmcritic.com  Christopher Null

84/100
"a disturbing and darkly revealing psychological thriller"  Cinemania  Dan Jardine

A
"Alfred Hitchcock at his most disturbing."  Ozus' World Movie Reviews  Dennis Schwartz

9/10
"One of the everlasting Hitchcockian masterpieces."  rec.arts.movies.reviews  Dragan Antulov

3.5/4
"From a craft standpoint, Vertigo represents the director in peak form."  ReelViews  James Berardinelli

5/5
"What a perverse little gem this is."  ToxicUniverse.com  Jeremiah Kipp

4/4
"This is one of the single most masterful pictures ever made."  Montreal Film Journal  Kevin N. Laforest

4/4
"Hitchcock's twisty, suspenseful tale is far more involving and memorable than most recent Hollywood thrillers."  TheMovieReport.com  Michael Dequina

5/5
"Hitchcock was elsewhere an entertainer, often a great one, but Vertigo finds him working as an artist..."  eFilmCritic.com  Rob Gonsalves

"Justifying Vertigo's poor initial performance, it is a film that requires distance, as well as the completion of Hitchcock’s career. It is a moment of acknowledgment in the final, retrospective establishment of the director’s frequent themes."  Not Coming to a Theater Near You  Rumsey Taylor

4/4
"After it, Psycho and the rest of the '60s are only a bitter précis of this thesis of sexual disassociation and identity politics."  Film Freak Central  Walter Chaw
