Rear Window Review

Rear Window was one of those movies that kept you at the edge of your seat! Before we watched the movie I thought it would be a dumb boring movie, because Mr. B told the class that the camera doesn’t leave the man’s apartment! But the movie ended up making you think about what would happen next. Of course whatever you thought always turned out being wrong because it was a twisted movie. You would think one thing would happen when a completely different thing happens!

One way the movie kept you at the edge of your seat was how they were always close to being caught. When all of a sudden they would get caught! And it made you think, “aw man, how are they going to get out of this one?!” But they always had a clever way to escape!

Another way this movie kept you at the edge of your seat was that the characters always did the unexpected! And they did it in a sneaky way, so you would wonder how they did that! Like when the girl goes into the murder’s house to find the ring! And the man catches her! It scared me, but when the police came she somehow already had the ring as evidence! Trippy.

One other thing that was good about this movie was how the movie was set up. The whole movie was filmed in the man’s apartment, but it didn’t seem that way because it would also film across the street. Even though the camera never went into anyone else’s apartment, I liked how you could still look into the other apartment’s through the window. It was a good set-up for this type of movie.

Over-all Rear Window was a very suspenseful movie with tons of different twists and turns. It kept your eyes glued to the screen. Even though I was at the other end of the room watching the movie, it felt like I was right up at the screen watching. I also had to turn my head a couple times because my eyes were burning. As you can tell, it was an addicting movie. One that I recommend to anyone who likes twisted, on-the-edge movies.
