Too heavy Osborne dialogue by moments and for a charqacter as Burton, and too affected some play between Ure and Burton; but an overall, hard, anger impact against institutions as the police (Pleasance) and even theatre, Mom Evans is an remarkable exception

"Mike Leighin Nakedin alkuperäisversiossa Richard Burton käyttäytyy kulmikkaasti ja ilkeämielisesti läheisiään kohtaan. Keskenkasvuinen hanakkuus kapinoida ns. vallitsevaa systeemiä vastaan purkautuu viattomaan lähipiiriin äkkivääränä vittumaisuutena, kuten tavallista. Maailmanjärjestyksemme on monituhatpäinen, mutta kasvoton. Kapinoipa sitä vastaan sitten. Look Back In Anger on positiivinen yllätys. Sähköinen riitelyelokuva turhautuneen ihmisen näköalattomuudesta. Tässä"

"A mostly good reproduction of John Osborne's stage play about a college-educated Englishman trapped in a dank working class existence and lashing out at everyone around him but mostly taking it out on his wife. The late great Richard Burton excels as the leading character Jimmy Porter but it is never explained fully at what he is so angry about.
