In Victorian England, a fortune now depends on which of two brothers outlives the other, or can be made to have seemed to do so.

The Wrong Box Reviews
Denton Record-Chronicle
Boo Allen
Funny farce with an all-star cast.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
He only has two scenes, but those two scenes, for my money, are the finest things [Peter] Sellers ever did.
Kansas City Kansan
Steve Crum
Black comedy featuring great British comedy actors
Movie Metropolis
James Plath
Hilarious black comedy.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Mildly amusing silly black comedy set in Victorian England.
Laramie Movie Scope
Robert Roten
It is a farce with a lot of class and style, carried off with some brilliant acting. It also has what most films with idiot plots lack, restraint, subtlety and sly wit.
New York Times
Bosley Crowther
Some sections and bits are funnier than others. Some are labored and dull. It is that sort of story, that sort of comedy. But it adds up to a lively lark.
Flipside Movie Emporium
Rob Vaux
An inspired English farce; Ralph Richardson is irresistible.
Des Moines Register
Jeffrey Bruner
Full of fun and wit ... It's a great treat for fans of The Life of Brian and Fawlty Towers who are curious about the history of British comedy.
Variety
Variety Staff
Mills amusingly hams his way through two or three sequences as one of the dying brothers. Richardson, bland, imperturable old bore, is superb. He and Wilfrid Lawson, portraying a decrepit butler, virtually carry away the acting honors.
TIME Magazine
Some of the gags crumble on impact, others are stretched out like taffy, but there is enough fun left over to leave most moviegoers happily wallowing in greed, sex, homicide, body snatching and other nefarious diversions.
TV Guide
All of the smaller roles are deliciously cast, with several of the best comic actors England had to offer in that decade, a heyday of British humor.
Boxoffice Magazine
Bryan Forbes proves as excellent at directing off-beat period comedy as he is at drama, and the slightly stylized acting technique occasionally used by his all-British cast in The Wrong Box adds plenty of flavor to the fun.
