"...the slow-burn of LaSalle's performance may be simplicity itself but it's hard to shake afterward."

"Brilliant..."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
4/4
"Every image in
Pickpocket
evokes the director's idea of the soul in transition."
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
"Hypnotic drama about a Parisian pickpocket"
Classic Film and Television
Michael E. Grost
4.5/5
"I believe Bresson would approve of Criterion's efforts, as all possible interpretations of "Pickpocket" are spread throughout the very special features of this disc."
Film Threat
Rory L. Aronsky
B+
"Bresson examines actions but offers little attention to motives, an approach that here seems to suggest that Michel's choices may be a mystery even to himself."
Decent Films Guide
Steven D. Greydanus
4/4
"Bresson's films are the most sublime expression of the powerful, illicit sexuality of the movement of moving pictures against a subjective audience."
