Wealthy Wall Street tycoon Steven learns that his wife Emily is having an affair with David, an artist and career criminal, Steven decides to do away with his wife, using David to do the job.

Over the last few months I've worked my way though Hitchcock's catalogue of films, I was sat wondering why none of his films had been remade for an age, the I remembered this one.

So it's basically Dial M for murder, with a late 90's twist, so we've got the tech, The Wall Street tycoon and of course that wonderful 90's vibe.

I have no intentions of comparing, as I don't think you can, but as an updated version it's good, it's a stylish flick, I liked the updates, and of course the heart of the story is magical.

It perhaps has a little too much polish, but on the whole it works, Hitchcock films weren't exactly in vogue in the late 90's, so it gets credit for at least being different.

Some nice twists and turns, I particularly liked the way the tech is used, and the way that David turns the tables.

Paltrow and Mortensen are both very good, but I'd argue it is Michael Douglas that stands out, and boy does he look sharp here.

I'd forgotten David Suchet was in this, at the time it seemed as though he'd turned away from Poirot somewhat, output was lower, it felt like he was going to leave the role behind, thankfully he didn't.

7/10.
