Double Indemnity Ratings & Reviews
- craigg75May 21, 2025Classic film noir. This film set the bar on what a film noir is. This is an 80 year old movie so give it some slack when it comes to the dialog and gender behaviors. I personally love that old quick shot dialog with the Brooklyn accents. Good story, well acted. I grew up in a time when Fred MacMurray was the dad on an old tv show called My Three Sons so it takes a bit for me to turn that image of him off. Sit back with a glass of bourbon and enjoy this film!
- Mister ArnMay 13, 2025This film checks all the boxes, femme fatale, dark well-shot scenes in black & white, and superior acting.
- Rowan KrzysiakFebruary 12, 2025A film with dialogue so 'good' it's terrible. Dated beyond repair, this feels like the inspiration for the parody classic Police Squad/The Naked Gun but it now has the danger of becoming unintentionally funnier due it's grating schlock wittyness. It still seems to rank in on the upper-quarters of 'best of' lists but hopefully more for its impact and influence rather than anything else. Avoid...or at least watch while doing something else.
