“To be honest, I wasn’t really sure to what to expect from this flick but since it was starring Jesse Eisenberg and since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, it turned out to be an intriguing movie, that’s for sure. Indeed, even though the tone was fairly we” read more
“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since it seemed to have a decent reputation, I thought I might as well check it out. To be honest, when I noticed on IMDb that this movie was more than 3 hours, I was actually rather apprehensive to see a movie which seemed to be not much mor” read more
Notes: Basically, it is one of Alfred Hitchcock's very old features but I thought it was actually very enjoyable. Indeed, back in those days, Hitchcock was really productive, often making 3 movies a year and during these period, he tried about everything from comedies to drama. With this movie, we finally get to see the great master handling the genre that would make him an household name, the mystery thriller, and it was just a really fun movie to behold. Indeed, the directing was really neat with some nice visual tricks and there were also a lot of funny bits contrasting with the mystery elements. Of course, it doesn’t the reach the greatness of his amazing classics. Indeed, the plot didn’t really hold very well in the 2nd half and this guy, John Mercier, was an intriguing character but he was a little too self-righteous for my taste. Still, among the older movies made by the master, it is one of his best and it is definitely worth a look.

What is it about?
Serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer confesses to his gruesome crimes in unguarded interviews, offering an unsettling view into a disturbed mind.
My verdict:
Ok.... Basically, I didn't follow my own advice and I watched this docu-series right after I finished 'Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story'... After all, I guess I thought I might as well get done with Jeffrey Dahmer once and for all instead of getting back to him later on. Anyway, if you have watched Ryan Murphy's monster hit, to be honest, there is no real point to watch this series as well since Murphy's thing was already so thorough. Sure, they did tweak some details but it was rather minor in my point. The upside with the docu-series was that it covered up pretty much the same material with only 3 hrs instead of 9 but, if you don't mind spending so much time with Dahmer's sick mind, you should probably watch Ryan Murphy's mini-series instead. Now, I will definitely watch something completely different, I swear...
“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was the last directorial effort by Sam Peckinpah, I was quite eager to check it out. Well, while watching the damned thing, I have to admit that I was constantly scratching my head though. Seriously, from the beginning until the very” read more
