This is a typical Hitchock film in that its pretty tense and suspenseful at times, it keeps you guessing and isn't an all out horror film but perhaps more of a psychological thriller of sorts. I thought it did quite well at making the viewer feel uneasy when faced with groups of birds stood congregating nearby, which is something I doubt anyone would normally bat an eyelid at.

Are people really so pretentious that they'll psych themselves up enough to enjoy this silly movie in some deep cinophile way, just because it's a Hitchcock? I always watch movies with an open mind, but the film really was as dumb as the plot description. Maybe it can be appreciated for what it was at the time. In my opinion this is 2019 and to me this looked like what a parody of a retro horror movie would be.

Somebody says "why do the birds attack? We never know" And that is because the horror comes from NOT knowing, not having some simplistic reason for the modern day audience that wanteverything tied up with bows. This film contains both the good and the bad of Hitchcock: absolutely dreadful dialogue, terrible acting/editing (take Hedren's 4 looks of shock during the seagull attack on the town) but some of the most memorable scenes that cinema has ever produced. The crows at the school are amazing

Disjointed to a fault, in part because of the high quality of its first half. Appears in many ways to be the product of a gifted dramatic writer who was forced to write for a prompt which called for an attack by killer birds. In the end, the last hour of bird mayhem destroys most of what's great about this film -- The pacing, the complicated gender dynamics, and its most interesting character.
