Reviews for To Have and Have Not
Top CriticThe film was Bacall’s first movie and the project on which she and Bogart met. Their love scenes couldn’t be any spicier.

Top Criticcolorful, believable, varied characters, a story that moves right along..., and dialogue that snaps right off the screen.

As the hard-boiled professional fisherman who gives his ample ingenuity to a cause, Mr. Bogart is almost as impressive as he was as Rick, the Casablanca host.

It owes more to Casablanca than it does to Hemingway.

The scenes between Bogart and Bacall are so dazzlingly about attraction and sex that they encapsulate the whole magic of movies.

Top Critic"You know how to whistle, don't you? You just put your lips together and blow," said Lauren Bacall to Bogey in this entertaining follow-up to Casablanca, thus launching the onscreen (and offscreen) romance that made them a popular team in the 1940s.

The movie is entertaining in its own right, and representative of the era in which it was produced, but, aside from the legendary interaction between Bogart and Lauren Bacall, there are only moderate reasons to recommend the film.

Director Howard Hawks made a bet with Ernest Hemingway that he could make a good movie out of his worst novel. I don't know who won or how much the bet was for, but my money is on Hawks.

...an intriguing, romantic, sometimes exciting, predictable but entertaining motion picture.

The movie is basically a rip-off of “Casablanca,” but it’s got some marvelous dialogue and great intrigue.
