CRITICS OF "Inherit the Wind"

Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies

Extraordinarly vivid, rich, and wise about the core questions of how we know and who we are.

April 04, 2003

Time Out

Tolerably gripping in its old-fashioned way, thanks chiefly to old pro performances from Tracy and March as the rival lawyers and ideologists.

February 09, 2006

Resource

Atlantic City Weekly

An all time classic

April 20, 2007

TV Guide

Absorbing, if long-winded courtroom drama bolstered by two fine central performances from Tracy and March.

August 13, 2007

Resource

F5 (Wichita, KS)

Director Kramer at his most unbearably high-minded and ostentatious

March 10, 2004

Ozus' World Movie Reviews

Tracy and March turn in superlative performances, each trying to upstage the other.

April 01, 2007

Resource

Q Network Film Desk

Producer-director Stanley Kramer ably handles the incendiary material visually, making good use of deep focus and careful compositions

January 01, 2002

Resource

Apollo Guide

A most worthwhile film, if for no other reason, because it provides a great opportunity to watch Tracy and March go at it in a most entertaining fashion.

February 11, 2002

Video-Reviewmaster.com

Stagey yes, but powerful Tracy and March acting + subject matter make this a must see.

February 24, 2008

Chicago Reader

Spencer Tracy does his cuddly curmudgeon turn as Clarence Darrow; it's a lazy, vague performance, but its wit provides the only crack of light in the film's somber, gray overcast.

August 13, 2007

Resource

Common Sense Media

Knock-out courtroom drama has deft comic touches.

January 01, 2011

EmanuelLevy.Com

Director Stanley Kramer can't overcome the trepidations of a verbose courtroom drama, so he lets his two actors, Spencer Tracy and Fredric March dominate and go at each other, pretending it's a deep play of ideas.
