New York Times

Under Robert Rossen's strong direction, its ruthless and odorous account of one young hustler's eventual emancipation is positive and alive.
January 13, 2017
Paul Newman is cocky poolroom hustler "Fast" Eddie Felson, a swaggering pool shark punk who works his trade in dingy bars and seedy poolrooms, in Robert Rossen's atmospheric adaptation of the Walter Tevis novel.
Common Sense Media

Like a traditional morality play; teens and up.
June 20, 2011
So much more than the ups and downs of one pool player--It's shot in a very realistic way and deals with inner conflict and what it means to be a man.
September 24, 2013
A crackling good morality tale
June 24, 2006
A wonderful hymn to the last true era when men of substance played pool with a vengeance.
January 27, 2016
Rosen, the co-author, has directed with a sure, economical hand. Newman is first-rate.
May 20, 2011
This is one of Newman's very best films, if not his best, even if it's relentlessly depressing.
August 03, 2008
Newman is better than usual; Gleason, as the slit-mouthed, beady-eyed Minnesota Fats, darts among the shabby little pool sharks like an improbably agile and natty whale; and Gambler Scott looks as though he could sell hot-air heat to the devil.
April 11, 2011
A raft of excellent performances buoy a fervent tale of weakness and success.
March 21, 2007
The Hustler belongs to that school of screen realism that allows impressive performances but defeats the basic goal of pure entertainment.
September 25, 2018
Newman gives a restrained, modulated performance, an unusual one in that character development is sought and achieved with utilization only of voice, gesture, intensity.
