MFB Critics Monthly Film Bulletin Feb 5, 2018
The direction of individual scenes is good, sometimes excellent, but the film as a whole is formless. Go to Full Review

B
A big-budget sumptuous love-on-the-run adventure story, with the chaotic Russian revolution of 1917 in the background. Go to Full Review

Harry G Jun 18, 2018 A fluff movie that goes nowhere, confusing as to who is the good guy or the bad guy, cannot figure out where they are going and why. A continual showcase for closeups of Dietrich. See more
Hermione P Jan 19, 2018 Knight Without Armour is a pretty good film. It is a Czarist British agent who rescues a Russian countess from her Bolshevik captors. Marlene Dietrich and Robert Donat give decent performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. Jacques Feyder did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the adventure and drama. See more
