Classic Hitchcock movie. Good cast. Good story.
A great slow burn that keeps you glued to your chair and waiting to see how it all unravels.
Worth seeing in our time and even in the ones to come.
Hitchcock's most suspenseful film and one of the most suspenseful films in the history of cinema. Admirable direction and script
A masterpiece. One of my top 3 favourite Hitchcock films. If you want a great thriller, then look no further.
Amazing Hitchcock movie, pretty tense the whole way through, very entertaining
The Master of Suspense scores again. Every single scene is very well-made and, appropriately, oozes with suspense.
Movie is still amazing, a fantastic single set film that takes you on a journey so many twists and turns keeps you intrigued throughout
Like most Hitchcock films, things escalate rather quickly. Definitely a rather elaborate ruse by the end
I watched the perfect murder before this so my brain kept comparing the 2 for similarities and differences, it was really good though
