Review of Vertigo (1958) by Spencer P — 14 Feb 2018
Representative of Alfred Hitchcock at his worst, Vertigo is a sickeningly self indulgent affair. Text book how not to make a long movie, this flick simply faffs around doing pretty much nothing for two hours just so it can hit us with a ridiculous, completely baseless plot twist in the last ten minutes.
Staying awake is hard enough watching Vertigo, but following the plot is near impossible, mainly because you don't give a shit 30 minutes in. The critics got it right the first time around.
