Reviews

McClatchy-Tribune News Service -
An old fashioned romantic mystery that benefits from a wizened, much-honored cast and a still-exotic setting.
|
|
Village Voice -
Gentle has its charms, and August's vision of the world, archaic though it may willingly be, is appealingly urbane .
|
|
The Playlist -
Bloodless, far too genteel, and perfectly content to continually tell where a little showing would be nice; Night Train to Lisbon ends up a deeply unadventurous adventure story.
|
|
New York Post -
It’s all terribly talky and low-energy; that wonderful noirish title, it turns out, was just a front for a history lecture.
|
|
The New York Times -
After barely stirring to life, Night Train to Lisbon mercifully expires.
