Creepy and strange in lots of good ways. Some of the camerawork and music feels invasive at times, which knocks it down a notch for me. But I appreciate the critique of the idea that one can simply make some exterior changes and thereby alter one's own identity. Such change always involves doing the work.

I find it switching between enthralling and off-putting, with the first half being more enthralling and the second half being more off-putting. Key elements of Wilson's motivation were too opaque, while the strengths of the camerawork and the score were basically things not to my taste. (The best analogy -- I appreciate many arias, but I hate opera.)

"It's gonna be different from now on. A new face, a new name. I'll do the rest. I know it's gonna be different." Very edgy style with substance that could be improved. The concept of rebirth and consequences of straying from a set path fascinate me and this partially scratched that itch.

Frankenheimer directs this with a lot of medium close-up/close-up shots, paying a lot of attention to the face of Arthur, which pushed the themes of identity. The disorienting nature of the camera work also mirrors his inner torment. Very impressed by the directorial effort here, but the script itself isn't always up to snuff and Hudson is fine, but unimpressive, and his character would have been more compelling in better hands. Great movie, just left me a little colder than I expected.

If the still-shocking storyline of a way to transform from the middle age blues to a brand-new life doesn't throw you off balance, the off-kilter camera shots and the staccato editing probably will. I think the thing I'll remember most from this incredible psycho-thriller is how much people sweat.

A black-and-white thriller with a sci-fi twist that remains gripping and thought-provoking decades later, all the way up to the haunting conclusion of the story. The cinematography is way ahead of its time. The only thing holding it back from my top tier is the somewhat drawn-out midsection.

This movie is much less interesting from the artistic point of view than the reviews may suggest. A typical case to be drooled over by snobby film "connoisseurs" who don't really know what they are talking about. In reality, it is barely worth the time you'll spend watching it.
