VERTIGO was no PICNIC, but Judy fell for Hitch in the end!

Date of Review:  Jan 16, 2000
The Bottom Line: Hitchcock's VERTIGO, like many of his films, explores guilt about women, desire and death. Unlike some others, an ordinary, decent man -- like Alfred Hitchcock -- is to blame.
Review: Perhaps one should not make crude puns about a great motion picture, but my title here is one I'm sure the master suspense director, Alfred Hitchcock (1899-1980), in an unguarded moment, might have appreciated, in private if not in public. From his...

The Great Pretender: Vertigo

Date of Review:  May 21, 2004
The Bottom Line: Vertigo is a good mystery that has been overly hyped. Worth watching but not "THE GREATEST" film it's cracked up to be.
Review: "Beam Me Up, Scotty; No Intelligent Life Down Here." Capt. Kirk

"There's one born every minute." P. T. Barnum

" ... you can't fool all of the people all of the time." Abraham Lincoln

Vertigo (1958) is one of the...

Love Lost and Found: Alfred Hitchcock's "Vertigo"

Date of Review:  Jun 18, 2001
The Bottom Line: Vertigo is an essential part of the Hitchcock oeuvre.
Review: "I'm not mad! I don't want to die. There's someone within me, and she says that I must die."
--Madeleine Elster, Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo


The easiest way to identify a master filmmaker is to observe how well his or her work...

Don't look down

Date of Review:  Dec 26, 2000
Review: The story is simply that a retired detective gets caught up in a cover-up mystery in which a man wants his wife followed. Without giving away too much, we'll tell you that his wife turns out to be a woman hired to disguise a murder. Played icily by...

A work of cinematic art

Date of Review:  Sep 18, 2004
The Bottom Line: Very highly recommended, one of the greatest films ever made. Multiple viewings are a must. An essential film.
Review: "I have acrophobia which gives me vertigo and I get dizzy"

Watching "Vertigo" for the first time is like looking at the surface of the ocean. Sure you may get a general idea of the vastness and beauty of it all, but it's not until you...

The Dullest Thriller I've Ever Seen

Date of Review:  Sep 6, 2007
The Bottom Line: Dull and just plain bad. This is one thriller that could put you to sleep.
Review: I have only seen a couple of Hitchcock's films, and frankly, I've been less then impressed. They've been overrated and just plain weird. Recently, I've decided I need to give him another chance, so I set out to watch a few more Hitchcock films...

VERTIGO: Don't look down!

Date of Review:  Dec 5, 2002
The Bottom Line: This film brings the term "classic Hitchcock" to a whole new level.
Review: It has been said that during the 1950s, Hitchcock was really making a name for himself. Having directed films such as Strangers on a Train, Rear Window and Dial M for Murder, Hitchcock was on his way to some big money, despite directing some...

I was on the edge of my seat

Date of Review:  Apr 4, 2000
Review: A nearby theater that shows only old/classic/restored films is in the middle of a three month Hitchcock festival right now so I've seen lots of his movies lately. While I have enjoyed all of them, Vertigo is the most suspenseful I've seen so far. I...

The finest film in history

Date of Review:  Feb 26, 2004
The Bottom Line: What more can I say. watch it. you won't have any regrets.
Review: Judging by my title I am sure you can tell where this is going. Hitchcock made this film in 58 to a reasonably unresponsive audience. Over time however this film has grown beyond anything possible. Stewart and Novak are simply incredible. To go into...

A Dizzy Spectacle of Suspence

Date of Review:  Jun 9, 2000
Review: True- all people will not get this movie
True- the first half of the movie moves like molasses
True- the story is far-fetched and neurotic

True- this is my favourite movie of all time!

If you haven't seen this movie- Don't...
