8.7?? Are You Kidding Me?

Rating: 5/10 (20 June 2012)

Really?? 8.7? I don't know what everybody else watched but I saw "Rear Window" for the first time recently and came away completely disappointed. I like Hitchcock, Jimmy Stewart, and Grace Kelly so I'm certainly not predisposed to dislike any of their movies.
Exactly where was the mystery?? There were no twists, no turns, no shockers, and no surprises at all in this movie. The plot was so utterly simplistic that I thought for sure one of the other main characters was going to be involved and would be revealed in the last 10 minutes of the film. Nope. Nothing. I couldn't believe it when the movie ended. My reaction was "You've got to be kidding me!"
And this movie has repeatedly been called one of the greatest ever?? Give me a break. Go watch "Rope" or "Dial M for Murder" instead.
