Rear Window Reviews

Despite the impressive fact that the entire film is set in one room, Hitchcock manages to let the audience to develop multiple narratives about the neighbors through Jimmy Stewart's lenses. His use of confining us in one apartment to control the viewers is storytelling brilliance

A very nice idea at the time, a creative lead actor, an excellent cast, and a simple, slightly strange but beautiful story that is worth watching.👍🏻🥹💔

Such a classic! It takes its time with a slow build-up, but I guarantee it’ll hook you once the suspense kicks in. There are plenty of memorable scenes, and the old-fashioned setting never made me lose interest for a second. And wow, what a gorgeous woman you are

I was just staring at Grace Kelly half the time

Mixing drama, with a bit of dry comedy, and the thriller elements to which Hitchcock had accustomed us, "Rear Window" is one of the best films of his filmography, and an interesting metatextual commentary on voyeurism.

Takes a little to build up but when it does, it hits

curious if hitchcock and stewart ever had sex behind the scenes? maybe an epstein connection there as well. just a random feeling

you’re telling me he had grace kelly right in the room with him looking like that and he was still more interested in peeping out the window??

Have yet to watch a Hitchcock and enjoy it without almost dying of boredom and i usually enjoy slow movies. Whatever makes people love his works is unfortunately lost on me

Such a basic and fire premise 9.5/10

Overall a 8/10. It was slow for a little bit but the third act was super engaging and it had an amazing ending.

8/10: An undeniable classic. The beginning is slow, and the ending wraps stuff up way too fast, but the camera work and framing is immaculate and the story is enthralling and memorable

I don't really know why, but this movie has made a special impact on me. Rear Window is a classic…it’s truly a genius movie…and I understand why. It’s an example that you don't need awesome locations & places in order to make a good movie. One of Hitchcock masterpiece’s !❤️👀

Quite entertaining, slow but in a calming but at the same time suspenseful way

80/100

4/5⭐️

I thought this was going to be a film where nothing would really happen, and that everything Jeff saw through the window would just be a misunderstanding, but I was completely wrong.

At the beginning of Rear Window, I have to admit that it felt a little slow, but I quickly became intrigued by the mysterious case of the couple across the courtyard, especially after the wife of the man suddenly disappears. Jeff, Lisa, and Stella become invested in discovering what is really happening, while detective Thomas remains skeptical and believes everything is just part of Jeff’s imagination.

This is the first Alfred Hitchcock film I have ever watched, and I can understand why it is considered a classic thriller from the 1950s. The suspense, storytelling, and way Hitchcock builds tension make it a memorable experience.

One of Hitchcock’s best, a complete classic with so many great elements

so much going on in the best way and the love story is great

٨/١٠

I can tell why this is a classic, the story telling was amazing, camera work, set design. All taking place in one single apartment complex. Incredible story telling and suspense. I kind of guessed what happened, but it was too gripping to look away. (he didn’t deserve Lisa)
9/10👀
