Chris: “I really liked the casting; Gary Oldman is always amazing, and he steals every scenes, as always. The overall story was good as well, but the pacing was too slow for me, and I found myself losing interest.”

Matt: “The casting was outstanding. Amy Adams continues to be amazing and versatile. I loved the visuals of this. A serious nod to Rear Window with the dollhouse/backlot studio build/stage play look and various Hitchcock style effects, of those simple, old-school murder-mystery thrillers, with just the right blend of modern cinema. I will watch this one again.”
If you want the original rather than the homage, watch Hitchcock’s Rear Window.
Professional photographer L.B. 'Jeff' Jeffries breaks his leg while getting an action shot at an auto race. Confined to his New York apartment, he spends his time looking out of the rear window observing the neighbors. When he begins to suspect that a man across the courtyard may have murdered his wife, Jeff enlists the help of his high society fashion-consultant girlfriend and his visiting nurse to investigate.
The ending of a movie is the final impression that movie will make on a movie-goer’s brain. Studios must do their best to make it perfect and sometimes that requires a cinematic overhaul.
