Review of Lifeboat (1944) by Matt S — 15 Jul 2011
One of the best suspense film of yesteryear I have ever seen! The acting was so powerful in this film I'm surprise no one even got nominated for an oscar and the situation of staging eight survivors stranded on a lifeboat after a german torpedo attack hits their ship is simple but effective and terrifying, kind of like Open Water meets Alive but not as much action but just as chilling and harrowing.
I'm also surprised that this movie doesn't get as much attention than Alfred Hitchcock's other films because it's definitely one of his best, most memorable one and of all the films to be remade I crave for this one the most and though it's perfect already it can easily to me be improved upon and turn into one heck of a movie and it has oscar written all over it.
Overall I can't recommend this early Hitchcock film enough, I loved it and it's one of my favorite film and if you like suspenseful, character driven, solid writing and survival movies this is a must see ASAP!!!!! CLASSIC!!!!
