Schaffner conduz a trama com segurança absoluta, permitindo que o espectador junte as peças do quebra-cabeças ao mesmo tempo em que seu diligente e improvável herói, vivido de forma espetacular por Olivier (mas Peck também merece aplausos).

Too funny to dislike.

Gregory Peck is miscast, but the film is entertaining enough.

It's more a silly and unbelievable pic than a bad one, but very watchable.
September 24, 2004
Silly.

This is a terrifically chilling entertainment, one that deserves a spot alongside the best paranoid thrillers of the 1970s.

The film loses the little credibility that Ira Levin's potboiler had, but helmer Schaffner was smart to cast Olivier as Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal and to surround him with superb actors

The plot is less suspenseful than the overacting contest between the two leads, Laurence Olivier and Gregory Peck, who spend most of their screen time one-upping each other in affectations.
March 27, 2009
Fast-paced, gripping and totally ludicrous.
March 27, 2009
Dark thriller that does its best but ultimately doesn't completely convince.
June 24, 2006
The answer should have made a great thriller, but the film is sunk by a series of preposterous performances.

With two excellent antagonists in Gregory Peck and Laurence Olivier, The Boys from Brazil presents a gripping, suspenseful drama for nearly all of its two hours -- then lets go at the end and falls into a heap.
