Man's Castle Ratings & Reviews
Slant Magazine
Dan Callahan
Harsh-spirited, episodic, and in a rage over the ghastly injustices of economic privation.
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
Filming the streetwise action and the colorful, caustic language from Jo Swerling's script, the director, Frank Borzage, finds sanctified tenderness in the poignant absurdities and grubby brutalities of gutter-level striving.
Variety
Variety Staff
Some of the wisecracks Tracy is called upon to read are of the roughest, most inconsiderate kind.
New York Times
Mordaunt Hall
Even though Frank Borzage in his direction of Man's Castle... gives an occasional fleeting reminder of his successful silent film, "Seventh Heaven," the story is by no means as plausible or as poetic as that memorable old work.
Vanity Fair
Helen Brown Norden
Bathetic and fantastic as the story may seem, it finds redemption in Mr. Borzage's at times inspired direction and in the genuinely fine and understanding performances of Spencer Tracy, as Bill, and Loretta Young, as Trina.
Classic Film and Television
Michael E. Grost
Haunting, magical romance set in the Depression.
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
Frank Borzage's vision of lower depths and heightened feelings
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
Spencer Tracy, buck-naked?
