Marjorie Baumgarten

Good performances elevate the material. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Staff (Not Credited)

What makes To Sir, With Love such an enjoyable film is the mythic nature of Poitier's character. He manages to come across as a real person, while simultaneously embodying everything there is to know about morality, respect, and integrity. Read full review

Staff (Not Credited)

Even the weak moments are saved by Poitier, who invests his role with a subtle warmth. Read full review

Bosley Crowther

A cozy, good-humored and unbelievable little tale. Read full review

Dave Kehr

Well-meaning tripe from 1966, crossbreeding Swinging London and social consciousness as Sidney Poitier tries to educate some East End ghetto kids. Read full review

Pauline Kael

In movies like this one, Poitier's self-inflicted stereotype of goodness cancels out his acting.

Staff (Not Credited)

A British Blackboard Jungle that bears no resemblance to school life as we know it. Read full review
