      woody w Outstanding cast, loved the natural noise sound track! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Tom M Great cast with outstanding performances by March, Holden and Stanwyck. Foch and even Winters in a small role are notable in support. Boardroom finale has a sort of 'Twelve Angry Men' feel. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/07/21 Full Review Audience Member I first saw this movie when I was 21 and the years have been very kind to it. Magnificent performances by the old standing Hollywood stars. I can say gripping in parts even though it is not a crime murder mystery, but I enjoyed it when I am 88 as much as I did 67 years ago. A must see if you haven't and if you have, re-enjoy it like I did Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review ashley h Executive Suite is an okay film. It is about a power struggle that ensues when the president of a large corporation dies. William Holden and June Allyson give decent performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. Robert Wise did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the drama. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review steve d Interesting film with some great performances. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A meaty book drew the attention of the movie corporations. MGM won and populated this film with some of their top talent. The film holds up well, is action packed and real-world related. Executive Suite is an early 1950s classic. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Milton Luban Hollywood Reporter Here is a magnificent motion picture that meets the standard of greatness on almost every count. Running a fast 103 minutes, Executive Suite holds the viewer from the opening scene, building absorbingly to a smashing climax. Apr 17, 2020 Full Review Nell Minow Movie Mom Rated: 4/5 Jul 30, 2004 Full Review Francois Truffaut Arts (France) Extremely skillful construction of the film thoroughly informs us about the characters in a minimum of scenes, without cutting up the action in sketches. May 6, 2022 Full Review Christopher Lloyd The Film Yap The rare Hollywood film that focuses entirely on a business setting, Executive Suite is both a typical drama of its day and an odd egg of a movie. Rated: 4/5 Sep 24, 2019 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com A slick, quintessential 1950s melodrama, about intrigues and leadership in the business world, well acted by an all-star cast: William Holden, Barabara Stanwyck, Fredric March, June Allyson. Rated: B+ Jan 29, 2012 Full Review John J. Puccio Movie Metropolis ...still manages to hold up reasonably well after more than fifty years. (Barbara Stanwyck Signature Collection) Rated: 7/10 Nov 19, 2007 Full Review Read all reviews
