help i rated the wrong pyscho before
easton dislikedPsychothis film was just very uneventful. for me, older horror movies (<1960) are far less enjoyable than modern horror movies.
Danial lovedPsychoTwisted movie i promise you will be surprised🔥. 8.5/10
- Ranon Travers lovedPsycho
The twist was pretty good. Some of the killing scenes were terribly not realistic looking. I enjoyed the characters though, and Norman Bates was creepy. Throughout the movie, you knew there was something off about him. The acting by Perkins was 🔥 Favorite Character: Norman Bates
Sabrina Bondi lovedPsychoPsycho comes nearer to attaining an exhilarating balance between content and style than anything Hitchcock has done in years. Of course, it is a very minor work. But its virtues of tension, surprise, virtuosity and control are all major ones.
William Luckenbach lovedPsychoA masterclass in suspense and storytelling, Psycho is not only one of the greatest horror films of all time, but one of the greatest pieces of American cinema. I knew what was going to happen yet I was still shocked. 9/10

It’s horror month and I’m in a horror mood so I’m watching horror classics starting with this now while I feel they drag it out a bit to long I have no flaws a perfect movie most watch 10/10 MASTERPIECE
Beercules likedPsychoI know it’s old, but even I could’ve done those stunts more realistically. And let’s not forget that they put a wig on a freaking skeleton. Other than that I enjoyed it. It was actually entertaining.
Jared lovedPsychoComing at this from a modern lens, you can see the twist coming. However, it is still a masterclass in its own right. Good suspense, and keeps you watching to see what happens. 8.5/10

What makes Psycho immortal, when so many films are already half-forgotten as we leave the theater, is that it connects directly with our fears: Our fears that we might impulsively commit a crime, our fears of the police, our fears of becoming the victim of a madman, and of course our fears of disappointing our mothers.
Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
The consequence in his denouement falls quite flat for us. But the acting is fair. Mr. Perkins and Miss Leigh perform with verve, and Vera Miles, John Gavin, and Martin Balsam do well enough in other roles.
