The best mystery thriller ever made,beats Miss Marple and Agatha Christie any day!

Rating: 10/10 (16 May 2012)

During the holidays,i was going through my vast DVD collection looking for a movie to watch,i took out Rear Window as i had bought it a while back and still hadn't watched it, i was in the mood for a Hitchcock so i put it on,expecting to see some average mystery movie,but boy,i was WRONG!!!!!!.
The plot line is this,a photo-journalist with a broken leg named Jefferies(played brilliantly by James Stewart)spends his days stuck in a Wheelchair.He becomes annoyed by this and begins looking out of his window to pass the time of day,watching what his neighbours are doing,his curiosity is aroused when he sees that the handicapped wife of one of his neighbours mysteriously goes missing without a trace,leading Jeff to believe that she was murdered...
I'm not revealing anything else,Rear Window is a masterpiece and it is a must see film,the story is fantastic and Hitchcock establishes himself as a genius as well as the master of mystery and suspense,the story is full of mind boggling twists and turns and you are kept thinking on the very edge of your seat throughout the entire movie,there a few really tense scenes that LITERALLY had me biting my nails,especially the climax,which is probably the greatest movie climax ever.
The acting is also brilliant,it's one of James Stewarts best performances,you will need to do a lot of hard thinking while watching this movie to discover what has happened,but i'm giving away no spoilers,if you do see this movie,i DEEPLY URGE YOU NOT TO TELL ANYONE WHAT HAPPENS,because if you do,this classic will be ruined.
A gem,the mystery and suspense are miles better than the likes of todays detective dramas,highly recommended to any movie fans,the complex storyline and nail biting ending will surprise you.Not to be missed. 10/10.
