Seeing isn’t always believing

Product Image: Rear Window
My rating: 4 out of 5

Professional photographer L.B. “Jeff” Jeffries breaks his leg while getting an action shot at an auto race. Confined to his New York apartment, he spends his time looking out of the rear window observing the neighbours. He begins to suspect that the man opposite may have murdered his wife. Jeff enlists the help of his society model girlfriend Lisa Freemont and his nurse Stella to investigate.

Typisk Hitchcock film (om jag redan vågar säga det). Spänning från start till slut. Bra skådespelare och ett enkelt manus. Mycket bra film. Man vill verkligen inte att de ska ha rätt i sina misstankar. Slutet är mycket spännande.

Wrong Time. Wrong Place. Wrong Number.

Product Image: Lucky Number Slevin
My rating: 3 out of 5

A case of mistaken identity lands Slevin (Josh Hartnett) into the middle of a war being plotted by two of the city’s most rival crime bosses: The Rabbi (Ben Kingsley) and The Boss (Morgan Freeman). Slevin is under constant surveillance by relentless Detective Brikowski (Stanley Tucci) as well as the infamous assassin Goodkat (Bruce Willis) and finds himself having to hatch his own ingenious plot to get them before they get him.

Riktigt häftig film dom håller en igång och gissandes genom hela filmen fram till slutet då allt faller på plats. Jag kom att tänka på The Usual Suspects, men denna filmen är inte riktigt lika bra. Men nästan. Det blir en mycket stark trea.
