I can't help but admire the mechanics of North By Northwest. Like so many of his films, Hitchcock buries an array of technical devices to keep the audience on their toes. Unfortunately these devices become tediously gratuitous. I'm not sure why so many people come to the aid of his weaknesses, as if defending Hitch's fame or something. All in all it's a suave dance, but footwork that can leave one exhausted.

The art direction in this film is stunning. Next time you watch it, only pay attention to the rooms, the wallpaper, the furniture, the colors, the details (especially Eve's hotel room and Van Damme's South Dakota house). I want to live inside this movie.

Spat my soda all over the theater floor at that tunnel ending.

Hitchcock's best. One of my favorite.

Gotta love that smooth, well-performed acting style of Grant; He's quite talented, he is. Saint was pretty sassy herself. Set design and music hit the nail right on the head. Indeed, Hitchcock loves him some thrillers...and so do I.

A fun, entertaining thriller from the master. Not his best, but very good, and always enjoyable to watch.

the film that finally made me understand why Hitchcock was named as the Dictator of Hollywood.

Fantastically entertaining! Amazing shots! Definitely a classic spy thriller

One of Hitchcock's better efforts, despite the ridiculous scene on that silly statue mountain.

Starts off as a perfect picture, but there's a rapid downfall right after the moment our protagonist fancies himself a James Bond type of character. Still, four stars out of five. Oh, and have you payed attention to sound on this one? You should.

Grant navigating the whacked-out shadowplay and sublime architecture in Van Dam's home atop Rushmore has to be one of my favorite sequences in cinema. Masterpiece.

One of Hitch's best! I remember being at Mt. Rushmore the summer this was being shot. Next time you watch this notice a little kid in blue sitting at a table behind Eva Marie Saint during the shooting scene in the cafeteria at Mt. Rushmore. Just before she shoots Cary Grant the kid sticks his fingers in his ears!

I can appreciate his film making skill/talent in context,but I wouldn't say i was on the edge of my seat or blown away by the film. Good film despite however much i believe people to be feigning excitement and bubbling over with love for the "classics".

Hitchcock at his glorious best. Cary Grant is awesome. What a ride!

And what about the music score? Wouldn't it be possible to become fan of any film original soundtrack?

I think you'll find that much of the score is plagiarism of Wagner's "Parsifal".

NBN is the culmination of Hitchcock's breezy, fast-paced entertainments that center on the theme of a man accused for murder. For its mixture of humor and excitement, it is rarely matched and the movie is worth watching in seeing how Hitch comes up with ingenious ways to thrill us and make us suffer along with the hero. Eva Marie Saint is wonderfully mysterious and the villains are entertaining. In short, perfect.
