Vertigo premiered in San Francisco in May 1958 at the Stage Door Theater. Its performance at the box office was average and reviews were mixed. Variety said the film showed Hitchcock's "mastery", but was too longand slow for "what is basically only a psychological murder mystery". Similarly, the Los Angeles Times admired the scenery, but found the plot "too long" and felt it "bogs down" in "a maze of detail". However, the Los Angeles Examiner loved it, admiring the "excitement, action, romance, glamor and [the] crazy, off-beat love story". New York Times film critic Bosley Crowther also gave Vertigo a positive review by explaining that "[the] secret [of the film] is so clever, even though it is devilishly far-fetched."
1958年5月，迷魂記在舊金山的舞臺們電影院首映。票房成績平平，褒貶不一。綜藝雜志認為“這部影片展現了希區柯克的大師級水平，但是僅僅對于心理謀殺懸疑來說，這部電影過長，情節過慢”。同樣地，洛杉磯時報喜歡電影的場景，但是，情節過于冗長，情節過慢，呆板。但是，洛杉磯考察報卻認為這部影片非常好，他們欣賞這部影片那種波蕩起伏、浪漫、奇幻的愛情故事。紐約時報的批判家鮑世利·克羅佘也給予了這部影片肯定的評價，“他認為盡管電影的情節有些牽強，但是這部影片的神秘感表達的惟妙惟肖。”
