Peyton Place Ratings & Reviews
Slant Magazine
Eric Henderson
The elements and storylines that ended up watered-down are to the detriment of the film's overall effect.
Goatdog's Movies
Michael W. Phillips, Jr.
It's by turns gripping and silly. I suppose that's what makes good soap.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Mark Robson's Hollywood version is far more enjoyable than the Grace Mattallius's trashy novel it's based upon, a quintessential small-town movie that in morality and other issues is sort of an ideological summation of the entire decade.
Apollo Guide
Ryan Cracknell
Shows America's beauty through its warts and blemishes, something that even today is often overlooked.
Video-Reviewmaster.com
Steve Crum
See it for 1950s' sexual mores if nothing else.
From the Front Row
Mattie Lucas
Once you fall in love with Peyton Place, you may never want to leave.
Photoplay
Janet Graves
Dealing with some rough material and several interlaced plots, this closeup of small-town life still has taste, dramatic urgency and emotional warmth.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
Slick and satisfying.
Variety
Variety Staff
Under Mark Robson's direction, every one of the performers delivers a topnotch portrayal.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
It's corn in the grand style, much of it delivered with sweep and conviction, and the intrigues come thick and fast.
Not Coming to a Theater Near You
Matt Bailey
Though a contemporary audience would hardly find Peyton Place shocking today, what is intriguing is that audiences in 1957 would not have found it shocking either.
TV Guide
This is the kind of hypertensive trash that gives melodrama a bad name, cynically tempering its naughty bits with smug moralizing.
