Carlos I It's got a great premise and some solid performances, but this Hitchcockian thriller is a slog to get though. When I could keep myself awake, I found myself yelling at the screen to get on with it. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/13/24 Full Review Papillon S This movie is pretty good and many scenes will make you the 'squirming in your seat' kind of uncomfortable. It's weird, but it's a good kind of weird. The little girl who plays Bunny Lake acts massively scared in a few scenes - believably scared, too. It's more of a thriller than a horror movie. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/12/24 Full Review isla s This is quite a mysterious watch - it felt tense and I found myself feeling unsure what the ultimate truth may be and I certainly felt concerned for the mother. It was an intriguing watch with some interesting characters, the pervy landlord, an eccentric lady at the school and other strict employees at the school. There are some scenes which do have a slightly sinister feel to them - not really scary as such (definitely not by todays standards) but certainly a little creepy, suggestive of something potentially untoward and this builds up and becomes moreso the case as the films plot continues. This features some good performance and I would recommend it to others. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review alexandre l Exhibit A as to how you can ruin a perfectly well-made movie in the final act. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review dave s Otto Preminger's Bunny Lake is Missing taps into the greatest fear of any parent, the safety and whereabouts of a missing child. Ann Lake (Carol Lynley) goes to pick up her daughter after her first day at school, only to find that nobody knows of the child. She and her brother Steven (Kier Dullea) try to stave off the suspicions of the police, led by Officer Newhouse (Laurence Olivier), when authorities begin to suspect that the child may not exist. Lynley and Olivier are great, but their performances are offset by a bizarre and atrocious attempt at acting by Dullea. The movie is fascinating and riveting until the final thirty minutes, when things become so outrageously absurd and implausible that it's difficult not to laugh out loud. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Frances H Great cast and direction with lots of twists and turns. I won't say more for fear of spoiling it. This film I saw on many different occasions years apart, but just middle to the end--seeing the whole film in one sitting was a revelation of the plot.
