Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

rivanerakaren Chilling movie to watch because its based on real events, but the acting is superb. I watched the latest one with Tim Roth and as far as I'm concerned they are both 10/10. Watch them both you won't be disappointed.

christopher-underwood That this is such a perfect work created from such a dark and dirty tale is a tribute to all involved. The tight, near claustrophobic direction from Fletcher ensures we can almost smell the dour details and surroundings of this desperate dwelling in the Notting Hill area of London at the end of the 40s. The war is over but the ruined buildings and their surviving inhabitants are barely held together. Attenborough conveys in a towering but terrifying performance the very essence of a weak and pathetic creature clinging on because of the depth of his depravity and need for victims. John Hurt and Judy Geeson are also excellent, each probably giving one of their best ever performances. It is the intensity of the acting, the very grime and grimness of the building they share and the streets they walk that make one flinch at the very sight and sound of life within this horrible unforgiving little world, largely orchestrated by and for the benefit of Mr Christie, with his numerous and wretched little cups of tea. After watching this and managing to extricate myself from the horrible atmosphere depicted I was astonished to discover that subsequent to the hanging and subsequent pardoning and re-burial of Timothy Evans there is now a consensus that suggests that maybe he really did kill his wife and child. This still leaves the psychopathic necrophilic serial killer that was Christie but even so....

Prismark10 American director Richard Fleischer could sometimes ham up his films but shows a sure footing here showing a shabby, dishevelled post war London in this film chronicling a notorious miscarriage of justice, one which took an important step in the abolition of capital punishment from the British statute books.Richard Attenborough is chilling as the softly spoken charlatan John Christie, who claimed to know it all and who enticed women to his home in the pretext of inducing an abortion but who used his gas set up to murder women and then it is hinted, committed sexual acts on their dead bodies before hiding the corpses.John Hurt plays the dim braggart Timothy Evans who moves in as a tenant in the house along with his wife and baby daughter. The Evans are a tempestuous couple and when Beryl Evans becomes pregnant she has no idea how she would cope as the family were financially unstable.Christie kills Beryl by coaxing her to abort the foetus and also kills the infant child. Timothy Evans who was illiterate as well as being not too bright was easily manipulated by Christie and easy pickings for the police. He was hanged in 1950 but when other corpses were later found in 10 Rillington Place, the criminal justice system realised their gross error.Attenborough's quiet creep is magnificent but a youthful John Hurt is also effective as the simpleton Hurt. Fleischer makes good use of location shooting showing a London where people disappeared all too easily during the blitz.

edwagreen A very eerie thriller where Richard Attenborough gives the most sinister performance ever as a man, at first masquerading as a doctor, and then only claiming to have certain medical skills. No matter what he lures his victims to is office to only gas them and follow it up by strangulation.One very tragic case where illiterate John Hurt moves into the building with wife Judy Geeson. Geeson totally sheds her high school imagine from "To Sir With Love," playing here a desperate wife who wishes to terminate the pregnancy with her second child.In the most horrendous way, Christie, our serial killer, turns the tables on Hurt claiming that he killed his wife and that with their constant arguing, no one would believe him.The film is a chilling indictment of capital punishment and our criminal justice system.
