Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Caine plays the sodding little spiv with a raucous charm that makes Alfie seem more interesting than he actually is.
Fresh: Behind its alley-cat philosophy, there's some shrewd sense, some pointed barbs and a sharp moral.
Fresh: For all its implicit misogyny, the original 1966 film version of Bill Naughton's play remains durable because of Michael Caine's career-defining performance as the cockney ladies' man.
Fresh: Of course he gets his comeuppance, in an ending that has all the moral weight and sincerity of a DeMille sex'n'sawdust spectacular. Good performances, though.
