Another brilliant Hitchcock film. One can hardly be surprised, but he still impresses me. This one’s a sort of spy thriller. It was suspenseful and exciting and had several great plot twists. Some of the acting was a little sub-par, but Hitchcock’s direction was great and it was always entertaining.

lots of classic scenes that have been copied since. aged somewhat well for being from this hitchcock period, still not overly entertaining at all times, though.

Outstanding! A very good movie from top to bottom. Great directing from the master of suspense, my favorite of the Hitchcock films.

Great pacing and a nice mix of suspense and comedy. Sure, it has some weird plot holes, but I was constantly entertained.

Fantastic movie. The best Hitchcock I've seen so far (out of the paltry three or four that I've seen).

Not sure what to say that hasn't been said a million times before about Hitchcock's classic. He was miles ahead of his British colleagues. He creates suspense out of every scene. Be it crime related or sexual tension for relief. The way he films takes you there in person. It's that intimate. And The 39 Steps brings you close. Close into the mind of Robert Donat and close to the restless suspense that never lets go. The 39 Steps plain and simple leaves a powerful mark. A phenomenal thriller.

I think I'm finally starting to get Hitchcock. Yeah, the plotting here is often preposterous, but the plot is just an excuse for some thrilling chase sequences, some great comedy and on top of that it's all presented in a solidly artful way. Makes me want to give North by Northwest a second try.

For the most part, these early Hitchcocks aren't really doing it for me. Things like this and The Lady Vanishes are kind of fun and dumb, but I don't think they're particularly thrilling, suspenseful, or humorous. I guess it passed the time OK, but I can't give it much more praise than that.

I was instantly bored by this movie. Imagine my surprise when at around the 15 or 20 minute mark, out of nowhere, it suddenly becomes suspenseful and engaging. This left me even more unprepared for when, at the 1 hour mark, it suddenly becomes very funny. The movie's uneven, rough around the edges, and sometimes mind numbingly dull, but nevertheless very good.

Many great set-ups and a blisteringly fast pace make this an entertaining film throughout.

A fun ride, covering a lot of Hitchcock's favourite territory. Fun film to watch even if was later eclipsed by North by Northwest.

I'm sorry - even if it is Hitchcock and it is a classic...I was bored the entire time, and I'm pretty sure that's the first faux pas of movies, right?
