Critical receptionLeonard Maltin noted a "Modest drama," which was "enlivened by a solid cast";[4] British Pictures noted a "Nice cast, but dreary story";[5] Allmovie wrote, "Apart from the always delightful Joyce Grenfell, Forbidden Cargo is humorless Dragnet material transplanted to the high seas";[6] while Sky Cinema noted a "workmanlike British thriller from the Fifties, directed by Harold French, has a documentary feel, with some crisp dialogue by Sydney Box. The suave Nigel Patrick stars as the customs investigator alerted to nefarious coastal activities by none other than the wonderful Joyce Grenfell. She is cast as an aristocratic birdwatcher who is most put out that a suspicious landing craft should disturb her nesting birds. Other stalwarts appearing include Elizabeth Sellars and Terence Morgan as brother-and-sister smugglers, Jack Warner, Greta Gynt, Michael Hordern and Eric Pohlmann, particularly good as a Polish racketeer. A pleasing period piece."[7]References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://books.google.com.au/books?id=sY1LGFNtCOEC&pg=PA155&lpg=PA155&dq=%22earl+st+john%22+rank&source=bl&ots=F00I_XFgLl&sig=d8tvsd5eVcjwTe2BsTtOE6PFciQ&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CCIQ6AEwAjgKahUKEwjDlKLH4O3IAhXkLKYKHQhDCic#v=onepage&q=%22earl+st+john%22+rank&f=false|title=Sydney Box|first=Andrew|last=Spicer|date=5 September 2006|publisher=Manchester University Press|via=Google Books}} 2. ^[https://books.google.com.au/books?id=sY1LGFNtCOEC&pg=PA232&lpg=PA232&dq=sydney+box+film+producer&source=bl&ots=F02E_WOkLo&sig=bTwtFh0NIsHllgPcTGLkovJObNU&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjmkt78sr_MAhXltIMKHcEYCX0Q6AEILjAD#v=onepage&q=sydney%20box%20film%20producer&f=false Andrew Spicer, Sydney Box Manchester Uni Press 2006 p 153] 3. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.bfi.org.uk/films-tv-people/4ce2b6aa6a188|title=Forbidden Cargo (1954)|publisher=}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/title/75360/Forbidden-Cargo/|title=Forbidden Cargo (1954) - Overview - TCM.com|website=Turner Classic Movies}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.britishpictures.com/arch_f2.html|title=ARCHIVE Fo - For: British Films of the 30s, 40s and 50s|first=David|last=Absalom|website=www.britishpictures.com}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.allmovie.com/movie/forbidden-cargo-v92008|title=Forbidden Cargo (1954) - Harold French - Synopsis, Characteristics, Moods, Themes and Related - AllMovie|website=AllMovie}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.sky.com/tv/movie/forbidden-cargo-1954|title=Forbidden Cargo|publisher=}} External links
