Ver-ti-go: 1) The sensation of dizziness. 2) A confused state of mind. 3) A great and smart thriller by Alfred Hitchcock

Rating: 10/10 (23 October 2005)

Alfred Hitchcock may have been one of the most famous and influential directors that ever lived. Sure, he was limited to suspense films, but nobody-and I mean nobody could make more suspenseful films than Hitchcock. Vertigo is no exception.
The great, yet strange storyline will leave you on the edge of your seat, as the detective Scottie follows around a woman who is perhaps possessed by the ghost of Carlotta Varde. Seemingly paranormal things happen, and the storyline is far from predictable. It takes twists and turns, and will leave you guessing and wanting more. You will wonder about the actions, and you will ask yourself "What will happen next?" When you finally guess, you will find your self surprised, shocked, but satisfied with the outcome.
It's fairly realistic too. It takes place in San Francisco, and you will be astounded be all the familiar sights. Then again, there isn't one thing that isn't astounding about Vertigo.
This movie makes a smart and fun thriller. Every minute is something fresh and new to satisfy your craving. It's one of my favorite movies. Nothing will make you hold your breath, or excite and bewilder you like Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo. Nothing.
10/10
