Of Human Bondage Ratings & Reviews
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
The first and best of three Hollywood versions of Maugham's novel boasts a grand dramatic performance from Bette Davis, who scandalously was snubbed by the Academy; she was a write-in candidate for the Oscar.
Film Journal International
Daniel Eagan
Dated but compelling drama
Nick's Flick Picks
Nick Davis
Davis either grates or invigorates; either way, the rest of the movie hangs dully around her.

Josh Larsen
What makes Of Human Bondage interesting is how unapologetic Davis is.
Film Threat
Phil Hall
Strictly so-so on its own terms, but invaluable as Bette Davis' star-launching platform.
Filmsite
Tim Dirks
Of Human Bondage (1934) was derived from the 1915 novel of the same name by W. Somerset Maugham. The tragic story's adaptation about a crippled doctor's destructive and compulsive passion for a coarse waitress was advertised with the tagline...

The film bombed at the box-office.
Vanity Fair
Helen Brown Norden
I think great credit should go to [Bette Davis] for attempting such a role, in the first place, and then for daring to carry it through with such a fierce consistency, extracting from it every last nuance of unpleasantness.
The New Republic
Otis Ferguson
It becomes a little happier and (more regrettably) cleaner [compared to the book], but gains in quickening of speed, being one of the best examples of pure directing craft to be found.
