Indeed Lightning Strikes Twice sometimes feels like Vidor’s attempt to make a 1926 film in 1951, as dialogue takes a distant second place to imagery in conveying the psychological conflicts.

Though the mystery is a little thin and sometimes muddled, there are some nice moments here, and the cast is not bad despite troubles with the script. Vidor's direction is okay, though his fans will surely be disappointed, knowing full well that he had done much better earlier work.

Lightning Strikes Twice, in short, is not explosive fare, but it does crackle on occasion.
