Reviewing the 2015 20th Century-Fox ''Cinema Archives'' DVD release of '''''A Life in the Balance''''' for DVDTalk.com, '''Paul Mavis''' wrote, "Despite some evocative location shooting in Mexico, and a decent ''noir'' set-up, '''''A Life in the Balance''''' turns out to be a straight thriller, rather than a ''noir''...which would be perfectly fine, if it got the thriller aspects right. Which it doesn't."<ref>http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/68467/remember-the-day-a-life-in-the-balance-tonight-we-sing-fox-cinema-archives-triple-feature/</ref> |
