A film of real quality! 'The Ladykillers' is amusing viewing. It's style of comedy is very fitting of its era, but I only mean that positively as the slapstick is undoubtedly fun to watch unfold. The cast are all worthy of a mention, though the standouts for me are Alec Guinness, Herbert Lom and Katie Johnson. The flick looks splendid too, love the set of Wilberforce's home. Entertainment from start to finish, ya can't ask for more than that.

Such a brilliant film and what a cast! A pity Katie Johnson didn't appear in more films because she's terrific as Mrs Wilberforce.

Funny concept and the back half comes into its own. But I think they needed a handsome charmer. One Round and the lady were good, though.

I've grown to love these Ealing comedies. Guinness returns as a delightfully creepy criminal mastermind, but the star of the show is Johnson playing the quietly obstreporous Mrs. Wilberforce. My favorite so far has been The Lavender Hill Mob, but this one is right up there.

I’m glad I got to see this on TCM. It is much better than the remake.
