- Suspicion (USA, 1941)
A good Hitchcock but not a great Hitchcock, but his good is better than most people’s best
Rating: 7/10 - Frenzy (UK, 1972)
Hitchcock's second-last film, concerning the hunt for a serial killer, is a partial return to form after his poor late 1960s offerings

Tense political thriller from that sweet spot in Warren Beatty's career when he could almost do no wrong

Cracking sci-fi tale with Malcolm McDowell as HG Wells chasing Jack the Ripper into 1970s San Francisco
Rating: 8/10 - Night Train to Venice (GER, 1993)
Despite a short running time of 71 mins, this Hugh Grant horror-thriller still feels interminably long
Rating: 0/10 - 51st State, The (UK/CAN, 2001)
Robert Carlyle and Samuel L Jackson try but fail to bring life to this strained, unfunny gangster movie
Rating: 2/10 - When Strangers Appear (NZ/USA, 2001)
Gripping and inventive thriller which achieves a lot on a zero budget
Rating: 7/10 - Truth about Charlie, The (USA, 2002)
I can see why someone would want to remake Charade. I cannot understand why they would cast Mark Wahlberg in the Cary Grant role
Rating: 4/10
