Hey, folks! - You know, I'm really trying to be fair and tolerant here about my rating and comments regarding this 1954 Alfred Hitchcock production - But, from my perspective - All that Dial M's story amounted to was just a stagy, little tale about a handy pair of scissors, latchkey lunacy and "Plan B" let-down. Well - OK - There was actually a bit more to Dial M's story than just that - But, with that said, I couldn't believe how utterly pedestrian and annoyingly anti-climatic most of this film turned out to be. With all of the talk-talk-talk (ho-hum!) that prevailed throughout Dial M's story, I was tempted (a number of times) to use the "silence" button on my remote in order to shut these gabby characters up once in a while. (I'm not kidding) Anyway - If you happen to be Hitchcock fan and love Dial M to pieces - Well - I certainly don't hold that against you. But, as for me - I would never, ever recommend this truly disappointing film to anyone. Never.
