Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Most of Hitchcock's movies are entertaining, tense and clever. I too had never seen Rope, until now. This one doesn't fit the bill and is most unsatisfactory. There is no plot, only a rambling of talking and most boring to watch.All I can say at the end: 'Well at least I've seen it', and forget that it spoiled my evening.

Once again Hitchcock proves that the simplest of concepts cultivates the greatest amount of suspense.

Rope directed by Alfred Hitchcock is a crime fiction film... And that's all you need to know, because this movie is GREAT. I went in completely unaware of the story or film making style. Experiencing the plot unfold right from the start, as well as understanding the incredible filmmaking and cinematography, left me in awe. I was so impressed by this film. I was genuinely entertained for the entire runtime. The dialogue is so compelling, due to how it progresses and builds with intensity, leading to moments which are truly riveting. From the very first shot I was completely invested. Every performance is outstanding and very authentic. There isn't a single distraction which detaches you from Hitchcock's fictional world. I highly recommend Rope. It's a movie experience which is unlike no other. It's nothing but a combination of incredible talent, so therefore I give Rope a 9.

Oldies were all about the script and the lines the actors say. No special effects, minimal gore, just plain old suspense, intellectual conversations and the details. This especially refers to the crime stories of the 1950s and 1960s and among them, the ones that made Alfred Hitchcock into one of the greatest film directors of all times. „Rope" is one of the best situation thrillers placed inside a single room during its entire course. Two murderers who are inviting friends to a party just to serve them on a improvised casket just so they can indulge their urge to rejoice their successful endeavor is just a great concept as a standalone, but when joined by some meticulous dialogues and great acting (Stewart), the viewer gets a memorable movie experience that will echo in the cinematographic eternity. „Rope" is one of the best movies Alfred Hitchcock made and one of the best murder mysteries ever.
