"Lumet ensures a smooth ride, but as usual takes too long to say what he means and brings the Express in 20 minutes late."
Time Out"An elaborate and witty tribute that never for a moment condescends to the subject."
The New York Times"The movie provides a good time, high style, a loving salute to an earlier period of filmmaking..."
Roger Ebert"Not a classic but definitely up there with the best Poirot features."
