Review of The Trouble With Harry

Breath-taking scenery, a fun musical score, competent performances, a handful of laughs and...that's it. The Trouble with Harry is like a car without an engine. Its got most of the right parts, but nothing to make it go. As a Hitchcock lover thru and thru, I can't believe I'm saying this, but, I was BORED. There simply isn't any magic in this one. There's nothing that takes us to a more interesting, glamorous, dangerous, or plain old preferrable world. The characters are merely sketches and the story entertains meaningless gimmicks rather than dealing with urgent motives or important choices. After reading through some very thoughtful and very complimentary reviews on various sites I began replaying the movie in my mind, trying in vain to see what it is I may have missed. I've gone so far as trying to make excuses for my disapproval, or even for the film. But try as I might to find a way into liking this one, I'm afraid the truth is clear: The trouble with The Trouble with Harry is it just isn't very good.
