Hagrid L Sep 19, 2018 Mi ha un pochettino deluso, perché mi aspettavo qualcosa che mi coinvolgesse di più e il film non era partito per niente male; anzi i primi 25 minuti mi erano piaciuti molto. La trama e i personaggi non sono stati di mio gradimento, nulla da dire però della bravura di Cary Grant e Grace Kelly, entrambi bravissimi e lei bellissima. Mi è piaciuta l'ambientazione, le musiche e la colonna sonora e, ovviamente, la fotografia, tant'è che ci sono delle scene con delle luci e dei colori bellissimi. Giusto per fare un esempio, la scena in cui i due protagonisti sono nella stanza buia con poca luce e sullo sfondo, dal balcone, vediamo i fuochi d'artificio. Do 2 stelle e mezzo perché mi ha un po' annoiato, peccato. See more

Hermione S Aug 30, 2018 If I put this within Hitchcock's ten most known films I might be right, but it's not concidered one of greatest - that's for sure. A man, Robie, is known for doing plenty of robberies. Well, he quit, but when someone is doing new jewlery robberies in his style of work, the police is after him. He get's into a mother and her daughters life and they are stinky rich. Diamonds and pearls everywhere, and yes, they do get stolen. Everyone knows about Robie, The Cat, but he claims his innocence. It's in the very typical style of The Hitch. It's smart, witty, thrilling and mysterious. Grace Kelly is here, so is Cary Grant. The car chase is there - an iconic one, as Kelly in real life tragically drove of the road at almost the exact location and died. The location is amazing, securing great scenery. I like it, but the last 25 mintues or so is a bit off for me and I tire a bit from it. Still, a solid film that is worth a go if you like Alfred and his work. 7.5 out of 10 chickens. See more

Han W Apr 15, 2018 What great way to spend an icy sunday! This may not be my favorite Hitchcock film but it certainly may be the most beautiful. Grace Kelly and Cary Grant were at the height of their "beauty." The setting is Monte Carlo circa 1954 (Grace met Rainer on this location.). Great fun from beginning to end. See more

George G Apr 1, 2018 There's a lot less of that Hitchcockian feel (not so menacing, lighter in tone) that you come to expect from the iconic director, but that doesn't mean it's any less entertaining. Beautifully filmed capturing the French Riviera in style, 'To Catch a Thief' has a plot full of mystery and suspense, two perfect leads in Grant and Kelly, as well as some great supporting characters. The dialogue is also witty, sharp and funny. This is a light-hearted mystery-suspense film with a bit of romance thrown in for good measure, and it just oozes charm. It's very hard not to love it.

Poe P Jan 12, 2018 To Catch a Thief isn't Alfred Hitchcock's best work, but how can you dislike a movie starring Grace Kelly and Cary Grant? Nevertheless, two charming leads will only carry you so far, and there isn't quite enough wit or suspense to make up for the undercooked story. I'm glad I saw it, but I'm not going to add it to my list of Hitchcock favorites. See more

Hagrid S Jan 9, 2018 Hitchcock's weak point of the '50s, but it's still good.
