Reviews

Dave Kehr
Chicago Tribune
Turning the screws with a relentlessness that impresses even in this age of the ruthless, high-tech thriller, Clouzot strings together situations of vividly, almost sadistically imagined danger.

Time Out
Hitch's bomb-under-the-table suspense formula burnished to an expert sheen.

Slant Magazine
The Wages of Fear contains tension-fraught stretches of "pure cinema" that probably gave even the Master cold sweats.
