To Catch a Thief
This is the kind of movie that would be impossible to make in this day and age. The story relies on characters more than spectacle, and acting more than action. There are plenty of scenes that modern audiences would deem "slow" or "boring", but in fact these are the high points of the film. The chemistry between Cary Grant and Grace Kelly was superb, and I must admit to a few chuckles at their many double-entendres. Their characters were both great, Grant played one heck of a great thief! The plot kept me interested throughout, despite a rather obvious outcome. And who could forget that great opening scene? Hats off to Hitchcock for that one!
Overall, this was pretty fun. It wasn't an incredible film, but I enjoyed it.
7.5/10
