Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

Megamind To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

carmenanderson-69590 I hate is story its so bad that it wouldn't let me click no stars because its didn't want to make you feel bad

EFNuttin (EFNottin) ( In Cold Blood (film) (1967) ) encapsulates everything scary I remember from the 1960s when I was young.And it's all black and white like it was in the sixties, right?The actual event happened not far from here, movie recalls the fear each time I view it, similar to whenever I read about a tornado that hit around here something like 60 years ago, same chills.In fact in some of the ICB scenes, I remember being in those places at some time when I was alive.Before I could read, when life was like ICB in the places I ever went, I thought every highway sign said Coffee on it, speed signs, turn signs, overhead directional signs, yield signs, stop signs, do not enter signs, one way signs, cliff signs, all said Coffee. Neon "PAY TOLL" spelled neon "Drink Coffee", coffee right here, coffee.It was impossible to walk down the street and back in those days and to not be reminded of Coffee for some reason. Or was it Coffeyville?Back then all the signs said Coffee but who knows if that wasn't just a finger boner or autocorrect boner. I do not know, I was too young.For those reasons I hate everything about ICB and therefore give it 10 because I hate it so much. It's so real, it's scary, 10, automatic, case dismissedThat's confusing enough and not too confusing.Also a teacher at my HS was cast as a constable or something in ICB. I'm sorry now I tormented him.Maybe not the best movie ever but doggone scary and definitely well above the 90th percentile. The scariest, most visceral depiction of a perception of reality I am able to recall without thinking harder than I prefer to do.I always shudder thinking about "Psycho" for the same reasons, also

jmillerdp Whenever this comes on, I find myself watching it. A fascinating, riveting account of the grisly murders of a farm family for money that never existed.The book was by Truman Capote. The writer/director here is Richard Brooks. He is masterful in his crafting of this story.The highlight is Conrad Hall's superlative cinematography! This is the all-time greatest widescreen black and white work ever.Robert Blake's performance has always been considered masterful. It's so tragic how he himself has fallen so hard.Recommended to anyone who loves true crime dramas, or classic cinema.********** (10 Out of 10 Stars)

g-bodyl In Cold Blood is a slow-burn crime drama that some people will adore, and others maybe not so much. I was stuck in the middle, mainly because the pace is excruciating slow. But other than the slow pace, I did find many things to like about the film. I liked the tone of the film and the eerie nature it gives off. Being filmed in black-and-white gives authenticity to the film, which after all is based off the real crime. The location of the movie ties into that eeriness because the film was shot on the site of the actual murder, so we get to see how everything actually happened, or close to it at least. I loved the quiet, semi-jazzy score from Quincy Jones. Also I felt maybe the final half-hour of the film was the best part of the movie.Richard Brook's film is about two men named Perry and Dick who are about to commit a robbery on a Kansas farm based off suspect information. When they realize they were not about to make the big score they had anticipated, they make sure not to keep their victims alive. Now the two men escape and flee to Mexico. But with law enforcement after them, their freedom may be running out.The film is full of nice performances. At the time of release in 1967 and even by today's standard, there are really no big stars. But I felt the cast did a good job. Robert Blake does a solid job as Perry, the man with a conscience and a violent edge. Scott Wilson, more famous for playing Herschel in the Walking Dead television series, does an excellent job as the carefree Dick.Overall, In Cold Blood is a solid crime drama. I felt it could have been much better given its slow, meandering pace, but the film is full of solid performances and it has a killer ending. I also felt intrigued as I learned about the actual crime, based off the research of Truman Capote. It was a very grisly crime, and I'm glad the movie did not skip the details of the crime. I actually thought, based off the first half of the film, that it would not show the crime. If that happened, I would have been thoroughly disappointed. I really like movies based off true stories, which is why I checked this film out. Not an entirely great film, but certainly chilling and enjoyable.My Grade: B-
