Review of With a Friend Like Harry... (2000) by Lee M — 10 Nov 2012

Between a 7/10 and 8/10. Add "who needs family?," and that's a good indication of how "Harry" dives into - but doesn't easily resolve - a strangely symbiotic muse (or Faustian?) relationship.

Evil can be just as banal as everyday life, an idea explored with nasty wit and not brutish violence. Add a pervading sense of claustrophobia, and the film is indeed reminiscent of Hitchcock.
