40s Film Noir

One of my absolute favourite Hitchcock movies! It's brilliantly made in terms of direction, editing, and acting. The story is extremely suspenseful too. I love it.

What else can I say except that this is yet another one of Hitckcock's great movies of the 1940s! A must see.

It's really amazing how Billy Wilder wrote and directed so many different movies. They're all really cool, and this one is no exception. It's a really cool film noir, and a must see for any film fan.

A must see movie for fans of HItchcock, Grant, Fontaine, and Hardwicke!

This is one of my favourite film noirs. The story is brilliant and the cast is great. I highly recommend this one.

A brilliant, if sometimes complicated, story of private eye Phillip Marlowe played by Bogart. Bacall co-stars. This is a classic 40s film noir, and I highly recommend it.

Another fantastic Hitchcock film, it's a cool psychological thriller, and it's a bit surreal too, which makes it even cooler. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend it.

What a fantastic movie, I loved it, the story is great and the actors are even better! One of my favourite movies.

Hitchcock's 1940s movies are really the best. If you love his movies, you can't miss this one.

Widmark gives a fantastic performance in this movie. That's mainly why I loved it, but the story is interesting and exciting as well.

My favourite gangster movie, Cagney is brilliant as the crazy mama's boy gang leader. The ending is classic. I love it.

Probably the first great telephone themed thriller ever. I highly recommend this movie.

Classic Hitchcock movie, a must see! It's both a thriller and a horror movie, and it's a nice combination. Plus great actors. why not see it?

A thrilling revenge film noir about truckers. I loved it.

A perfect movie of romance and gangsters. It's exciting, dramatic, and romantic. I loved it, and I highly recommend it.

I loved this movie! Andrews and Faye and Darnell were so fantastic in the movie, and the story is exciting, suspenseful, and romantic. I highly recommend it.

A great movie, it stars both Robert Mitchum and Kirk Douglas, so how could it be bad? I loved it.

This is probably Tierney's best performance ever! If you're a fan you must see this movie.

Robinson gives a fantastic performance in this movie, and the story is so perfectly tragic, I loved it, especially the ending. If you love Robinson or are interested in the movie because of the plot synopsis, check it out.

This is sort of a confusing mystery, but mysteries that aren't confusing are boring. I loved this movie.

Price is shocking in this movie. I recommend seeing it without reading the synopsis or anything first, it's more shocking that way. I love this movie and was shocked to find that it is featured on almost every one of those 50 movie pack DVD boxes. Anyway, if you love Vincent Price, check this out.

A great cast and story, it's really dramatic and exciting, I loved it.

I don't know why there was a fascination with truck drivers in the 40s, but the movies about them always turned out great. This movie is no exception, and it has a great cast.

If anyone can help an innocent man out of jail, it's James Stewart. This is a really great movie with a true story too.

This is a really cool movie with a very interesting mystery, a really good film noir. Plus, the actors are great: Tiereny, Andrews, and Price too.

I liked this movie, it's suspenseful and has a good story and good actors too. It doesn't list Kirk Douglas, but he's in the movie too.

Many people point to this as one of the best noir films, I don't think it's the best, but I do like it. I highly recommend checking it out.

A strange, yet intriguing story of two people trying to prove someone's innocence. I liked it.

I liked this movie, not only for the great cast, but the great story too. Two bad situations, gangsters and a hurricane, make for an interesting movie.

An actor gets too involved in his roles and eventually looses himself in the role of Othello. Colman gives a great performance in this movie.

Gilda stirs up trouble between two men who love her. An interesting, but slightly unoriginal.

Who wouldn't want to see a film noir called Murder, My Sweet? That just sounds so cool. It really is a good movie, a bit confusing at first, but good in the end. If you like film noir, you'll like this movie.

A good movie about a guy who gets involved with another man's wife, and finds out the husband wants him to be part of some crazy scheme. See it for yourself, it's good.

Another good film noir, with a very interesting story of murder and romance. Good acting, good story, it's good.

A good obsession movie, and Crawford is just the woman to play this character, I really liked this movie.

A good thriller in which twins are suspected of a crime. There have been other films like this later, but it's still a good movie.

The Stranger or I Married a Nazi (just kidding). A small town is unaware that one of their citizens was a Nazi in WWII, and he lives a normal life until someone comes looking for him. A good movie, with good actors and an interesting story.

A suspenseful movie with an interesting yet simple plot. Really worth checking out.

An all-star cast with a heart-felt story, but it could have done a better job at presenting the story or something, I just felt it could have been better in some way. Still, I think this is a good movie, and very worth seeing.

An exciting, thrilling tale of money, crime, and marriage. I really liked this movie.

Another good thriller from the forties, somewhat like a lot of other thrillers, but it has a good cast, it's worth watching.

The story of a man who must prove his innocence in a murder case. It's a story you've seen before, but this movie is enjoyable anyway.

A sort of round-about chase movie with an interesting cast and story. I liked it.

Tierney plays a woman who has kleptomania, and doesn't want her husband to find out. It's very thrilling, I liked it.

An interesting movie about a writer who wants to find out who killed his friend. The story is familiar, but this movie is good anyway.

This is a good thriller, but there are other similar movies, some directed by Hitchcock as well, that are better than this one. Still, it's exciting and enjoyable to watch.

A bizarre tale indeed, but an interesting one too.

A good detective mystery movie, I liked it.

A good forties film noir.

I love Price, but I didn't think his performance in this movie was his best. The story was suspenseful at times, but boring at other times, and overall predictable.

A slightly predictable story of blackmail and murder involving Bette Davis. Pretty good movie, but it could be more exciting.

When you base a crime movie on actual cases they're either brilliant or boring. This one is in between.

Sort of an interesting story, but the movie feels very average, and the cast has no real stars.

This could have been a good movie, if not for the fact that the audience knows that a doctor keeping a woman at his house to treat her is ridiculous, this could have been a good movie. I mean, why wasn't she kept at the hospital? That's weird.

This movie could have been good, but it doesn't meet the audiences expectations for a movie called deception.

A good cast, but an average story, makes for an okay movie.

Did DeForest Kelley/Dr. "Bones" McCoy kill someone? He's not sure if it was a dream or reality. It was interesting to see Kelley in an older movie, but the movie isn't that great itself. It's just okay.

An okay adaptation of the story of Bluebeard, not great, but not bad either.

Literally about a boy who idolizes someone and finds out their not all that they thought they were. An okay movie, but not very exciting.

This is a strange movie, I wasn't sure how to rate it. It's not bad or good, it's just okay.

How exciting, agents of the US treasury are on the case! Okay, I'm being sarcastic, this is a horribly boring movie.

A strange, silly, sloppy, boring movie that shouldn't have starred Bogart, he's worthy of a much better script.

Boring, confusing, I didn't get it. I usually like film noir, but I didn't like this movie.
