Very well executed

brilliant actors, brilliant editing

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

I have always been a fan of Grace Kelly and I very much enjoyed her performance in this film. The dialogue of this film was very snappy and entertaining, and was able to keep my attention. Very worth watching

This has become one of my personal favorites: gorgeous actors, gorgeous costumes, gorgeous French Riviera scenery. What's not to like?Favorite stuff:Flower Market chase. Notice how the colors of the costumes and flowers conjure up the Red, White and Blue of the French flag. (This color motif is used throughout the movie.)Dialog:Grace Kelly says Grant is just not believable as a rough lumberman from the Big Northwest. Grant: "I must remember to yell 'Timber' occasionally."After Kelly and Grant spend a romantic night watching fireworks, her mother's jewels go missing. An angry Kelly says to Grant, "I called the police from your room and told them who you are and what you did tonight." Grant: "Everything? The boys must have enjoyed that down at headquarters." The visuals during that line? Kelly, who has been playing with an umbrella, unconsciously points it directly at Grant's crotch.Too delicious.

Pairing Cary Grant with Grace Kelly certainly put the pretty people of America on the screen big time. This is a classic film that has been copied many times. It involves a high powered jewel theft by a master criminal. But to attain this one must put a lot at risk. The strength of this is the script with a kind of sexual byplay between the two principles. Of course, we must remember that this is the fifties and it seems pretty tame. I always considered Ingrid Bergman and Grace Kelly to be the most beautiful actresses of their time (perhaps for all time). With the suave jewel thief Grant and the cool blonde Kelly, we have a formula for success. Of course, there is also Hitchcock. MOre lightweight than many of his other films but well worth seeing.

Cary Grant and Grace Kelly stars in this Alfred Hitchcock classic about a retired cat burglar who is being set up by a jewel thief who is at large on the Riviera.Jessie Royce Landis,John Williams,Charles Vanel and Brigitte Auber co-star in this 1955 classic.There is a jewel thief that is at large on the Riviera and all the evidence of his/her crime points to a retired cat burglar John Robie as his ways of burglary are being copied.Robie,who was able to escape the law,pleads innocence and has decided to find out who is behind all this new crime wave that has been happening.With the aid of a reluctant detective H. H. Hughson,they decide to monitor bejeweled wealthy vacationers to find out the identity of the jewel thief.No question that this has become a landmark film in Hollywood being the last film of Grace Kelly,who gave up her acting career to marry Prince Rainier of Monaco and decided to go into philanthropy works thereafter.Aside from that,fans are treated into a comedic and enjoyable film wherein the viewers are charmed no end by the good looks of both Cary Grant and Grace Kelly.In addition to that,we are also treated to a lightweight Hitchcock film considering as the story was told in a relaxed mood as compared to most of his films.Overall,it was an fun film to watch.
