Time proves this to be insanely ambitious and batty in the best sense.

The storyline is almost incidental to the disorientating inventiveness of The Lady from Shanghai.

Boston Globe

The climax, a shootout in a funhouse hall of mirrors, is one of the bravura sequences in all film, a triumph of hey-look-at-me form over just-the-facts content.

The plot's pleasingly convoluted, the performances amusingly varied, the mood sinisterly sustained. But the set-pieces are the work of a genius.

Variety

Script is wordy and full of holes which need the plug of taut story telling and more forthright action.

It has an irresistible energy.

Village Voice

For all the violations it suffered, The Lady From Shanghai seems strangely coherent in its extant form -- or rather, coherently incoherent, and in a way that seems quite deliberate.

New Yorker

Welles and Hayworth were married at the time; he gives her closeups of unmatched rapture even while allegorizing his own fate as a free spirit caught in the trap of Hollywood's delusional pleasure dome.

The hall-of-mirrors shootout finale is a canonic classic.

Independent (UK)

The film is as tangled and ingenious as any of Welles's conjuring tricks. The shoot-out in the hall of mirrors is the most famous sequence, but there are other moments just as memorable.

Time Out

A magnificent mess of switchbacks and revelations, climaxing with one of cinema's most outrageously inventive sequences.
