Best of a Box Set?

Date of Review:  Apr 18, 2000
Review: To begin, I bought an Alfred Hitchcock box set a few weeks ago. I've gotten about halfway through it. The great thing is that I knew nothing about the plots of over half the movies in it.

So far, my personal favorite is Rope. And this is...

Niles and Frasier Kill Their Friend for Kicks

Date of Review:  Jul 30, 2001
The Bottom Line: Are you SURE you're the one who could get away with it?
Review: A psycho at work recommended this movie to me--he's a Competition Juggler with several State Championships under his belt, and his a really nice guy, but my only other conversation with him about movies was when he talked about "Full Metal Jacket,"...

The Rope Helped The Master

Date of Review:  Jul 15, 2002
The Bottom Line: A great work of the master containing great acting and dialogue. Although it is not as suspenseful, it is still a must see.
Review: Rope is one of Hitchcock's guinea pig films in a way, and one that is most responsible for making him the Master of Suspense. Rope was Hitchcock's first film in technicolor, the first time to work with James Stewart, and the first as an independent...

Will pull you in and not let go

Date of Review:  Dec 18, 1999
Review: There are two key reasons why I absolutely love this film. One is the style of filmmaking as the camera seems to only cut once throughout while what you are looking at never ceases to entertain (they pulled off this wonderful trick to reload the...

Rope - An Overlooked Hitchcock Gem

Date of Review:  Oct 22, 2007
The Bottom Line: Rope was a very entertaining movie that hinted at future Hitchcock movies.
Review: Alfred Hitchcock became known for creating several wonderful, suspenseful movies. I have seen and enjoyed several of them and even own a few. There are still some of his movies that I haven’t seen. I recently watched Rope for the first time.

Murder as an art form

Date of Review:  Jun 19, 2000
Review: Rope begins with two men strangling a third. They put the body in a large trunk, and begin preparing to host a dinner party for the dead man's friends and relatives... Such a beginning could only be the work of Alfred Hitchcock.

The...

Hitchcock Unfiltered

Date of Review:  Jan 24, 2000
Review: In "Rope", Hitchcock gives you just enough of it in the opening shot to hang your suspicions that this is a typical Hitchcock film. Two men kill another with a rope. That's the opening! It's simply too enthralling for you to even consider leaving...

The Talented Mr. Hitchcock

Date of Review:  Apr 5, 2000
Review: I could not help but dig the following things about "Rope":

* Naturally it's pretty neat how the movie is a series of eight-minute takes (the maximum length of a film reel in 1948). But what's even neater is how, in one of the takes,...

Psycho thriller!

Date of Review:  Aug 1, 2000
Review: Long before Psycho was even a twinkle in Hitchcock's eye, or the subtle horror of Rear Window was ink on paper, there was Rope. A magnificent character study, in real time, of the warped logic of two psychology students as they morbidly choke their...

Date of Review:  Dec 14, 2009
It's Good For: Entertainment, Women, Men, Adults, Teenagers
Review: Rope is a slickly crafted movie about two students who kill a fellow student for the thrill of it. They then hold a dinner party for the victim, tension mount as guests wait for the guest of honor who'll never show up. Also notable for being...
