      Robert Abele Los Angeles Times While it never achieves the status of hidden laugh riot or ignored gem, it's far from a failed experiment. Jun 15, 2020 Full Review Neely Swanson Easy Reader (California) As a moment of screen history, this is a film worth watching as long as it can be done without expectation. It certainly explains why Sellers did not direct again. Mar 1, 2021 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Mr. Topaze is one of those movies that gets better as it goes along, so stick with it. Rated: 3/4 Oct 30, 2020 Full Review David Bax Battleship Pretension ...the CinemaScope logo at the beginning promises an ornate and immersive world that, sadly, Mr. Topaze fails to deliver. Jun 18, 2020 Full Review Peter Canavese Celluloid Dreams A comedy of ethics that gets off to a sluggish start, picks up, but ultimately sputters across its finish line...worthwhile for the magnificent chemistry of Sellers and frequent foil Herbert Lom. Rated: 2.5/4 Jun 16, 2020 Full Review Peter Sobczynski eFilmCritic.com The essential problem with the film, as it turns out, lies with the material more than anything else... screenwriter Pieree Rouve never quite figures out a way to make this transformation work in either dramatic or comedic terms.
