While reputedly closer to the classic novel than even the Hitchcock adaptation, The Thirty-Nine Steps somehow feels more forced. It is better than the 1960 version with Kenneth More. Robert Powell is a more confident and capable Richard Hannay while David Warner is his foil as the enemy spy plotting against England during World War One. The cinematography lacks focus sometimes but the atmosphere and action scenes are both well done.
