I was in high school the first time I saw this movie, I loved it then and I still love it.
I do wish we could respond to reviewers, especially reviewers that think they know it all but don't. Rear Window was made in 1954; Wizard of Oz in 1939. Jeremey what's your face, you are so wrong.
It is not boring, just because there aren't gun fights and car chases. It makes you think. We are observers just as Stewart's character is an observer. We see all the different stories of people's lives, but nothing is as it seems.
