 DIAL 'M' FOR MEDIOCRE February 23, 2008
1 out of 4 found this review helpful
There's no question that I hold Alfred Hitchcock to a higher standard than any other director. That's why, after multiple viewings, I simply consider this film to be fair. We have Ray Milland wanting to dispose of his wife, Grace Kelly for infidelity and money. So far, so good.But, within 10 minutes of the opening, we have Milland "on a pulpit" with his annoying voice droning on and on to a sleazy college acquaintance of how the latter is to commit the crime. Later, we have the equally annoying voice of "Sherlock Holmes" filling the airwaves, following the botched murder. Cummings is acceptable and Kelly is first rate, per usual. But,to me it's nothing but gab,gab,gab, with all of the "action" confined to one room. Additionally , one has to be ever alert to the latch key problem, lest the viewer becomes totally confused. All directors make poor films at times, even my personal favorite.
 Great film -- too bad it's not really available for purchase on Unbox February 1, 2008
This is classic Hitchcock, and is one of Grace Kelly's best roles. It's a shame that this movie isn't actually available for purchase by download, even though the Unbox site says that it is. As of today, anyway, the movie can be rented, but it can't be purchased for $8.99. False advertising?
 Great movie. January 29, 2008
This is one of the best movies of all time in my opinion. Suspense is outstanding. Story line is great. Acting is much better than average. And it has Grace Kelly. Most movies bore me to death--99.44% This is one of the very few that does not.
Dial M for Murder January 27, 2008
This was an excellent movie at a great price! When I ordered the movie it arrived immediately. I love ordering from Amazon because they have the movies that most stores do not have. I will always continue to order from Amazon!
"Dial Milland for murder" December 29, 2007
RAY MILLAND'S PERFORMANCE AS AN EGOTISICAL ROGUE . JOHN WILLIAMS PLAYS THE POLICE INSPECTOR.
HE'S A BRITISH COLUMBO. BEFORE THERE WAS A COLUMBO. HE'S A DELIGHT! THE REST OF THE CAST
PERFORM WELL. ADAPTED FROM A SUCESSFUL PLAY. ONE OF THE BEST SCENES IN THE FILM IS MILLAND
CONVINCING AN OLD COLLEGE ACQUAINTANCE TO KILL HIS WIFE(GRACE KELLY) . FILMED IN BRILLIANT
COLOR! 5 STARS !!!!!
