Vertigo

"Very good but not at all what I expected. I thought this would be a thriller culminating at the Golden Gate Bridge, not a man haunted by ghosts of the past after being dragged into a mess not of his own making just because he had vertigo. I didn’t expect the twists and the cinematography and score were the right amount of dramatic and eerie. I also loved James Stewart, but it was really Kim Novak who stole the show for me."

"No idea why it is so popular. Perhaps for the time it was some new exciting effects, idk. I found it to be monotonous. Nothing much happens until the end , which happens abruptly, and then ..it's over. MEH "

"This was an enjoyable twisted tale with the classic bleak ending . Not sure why people say this is Hitchcock's best when he has other entries that are way more tense and dark. "

"Roman Holiday meets Psycho (kinda, but not really). Really good movie, I’m liking Alfred Hitchcock more and more everyday. Definitely recommend this film."

"Didn’t love the ending, but I love the rest of the movie!! Great acting, beautiful shots, good writing up until the end."

"In the immortal words of The Barenaked Ladies, "Gotta see the show, 'cause you know that Vertigo is gonna grow 'Cause it's so dangerous you'll have to sign a waver." Watching this the day after watching Body Doubke was buck wild. You really start to see THAT project in New and interesting ways. The way this movie used cinematic language to achieve the Vertigo effect is iconic for a reason. It's damn good and quite effective. If I were to explain Vertigo to someone I'd think back to the cinematic language of this film. It helps that the plot is completely nutzo too. Very interesting watch."

"The plot twists were so good!!! A must watch "

"eh it was ok. Given the times it’s a great film and an interesting tail on what it takes to get over vertigo. 8/10"

"Abrupt ending but otherwise good, suspenseful & mesmerizing. Some reviews say it’s too slow (& I often feel that way about movies) but I felt the pacing was perfect."

"Unpopular opinion but it’s not that good "
