Mini-Review: Some interesting moral dilemmas to ponder over, but there isn't anything spectacular here that invites either glowing praise or subsequent re-watches. It suffers from momentum issues at various phases, especially when Lewis' character fades out. The first part of the film is well done though, I must say.

Mini-Review: Rather than it's acclaim as a future dystopian themed classic, I prefer to look at this as Lang's prophetic look at the nightmarish reality that underpins modern society. Fundamental to the human condition is our search for meaning, when the illusion is unsettled or painted with a darkness that is contrary to our previous experience, we are faced with the solemn fate of capitulation in both our physical lives and our spiritual worth. Visually beautiful, eternally provocative.

Mini-Review: I found this rather dull, and lacked pretty much any semblance to Hitchcock's "trademark" touch.
