Meaning critics think he's a good director? :unsure: Which ones? What?

Well, a lot of critics seem to constantly praise his talents as a comedy writer and director when he isn't any less hit or miss (or any less stupid) than the Farrelly brothers, whom all critics seem to dispise.

It just makes me wonder how many critics Smith had to blow to get his reputation.

Fantastic film. One of the earliest German sound pictures, and it still stands up today alongside and even beats the crap out of a lot of modern detective and/or slasher movies I've ever seen. Amazingly well-written stuff too.

Yeah, Fritz Lang is awesome, just look at the guy.

Fun fact, Fritz Lang was actually The Penguin.

^He's almost as good as Franzl Lang, though not quite.

Actually it is, especially with parts 3, 4, and 5. Those three form a little trilogy together and are definitely best watched in order.

It was cliché ridden yeah, but it was still freaky, the writing of it was brilliant, the way the suspense was built up, and of course the character of Freddie was brilliant, if that was a fresh idea made today, where you could smoother it with gore and special effects it'd be even scarier (considering the writing of it is the same)

I dislike horror because I go from being a rational human being into a 12 year old girl that doesn't want to leave their room (just incase.) do you think it's scary today, if you were to watch it for the first time? I can never tell because I get scared at any scary movie.

They're making a remake this year but it'll probably be really bad.

I saw Shutter Island on Saturday. Loved it.

2 is also of special interest for being the most amusingly homoerotic horror film ever made.

in short, alot of fun to watch/listen to.
