A Perfect Murder is a 1998 American thriller film directed by Andrew Davis and starring Michael Douglas, Gwyneth Paltrow and Viggo Mortensen. It is supposedly a remake of Alfred Hitchcock's 1954 film, Dial M for Murder, though the characters' names are all changed, the characters of Halliday and Swann are combined, and over half the plot is completely rewritten and altered. Loosely based on the play by Frederick Knott, the screenplay was written by Patrick Smith Kelly.


A Perfect Murder was a well-crafted thriller with some nice performances. I liked it a lot. B

Weird, nobody else reviewed this!

Anyway, this is a brilliant 90s thriller. I rewatched it a few days ago and it just boasts some of the best things about movies that are not made anymore. Firstly, you have proper stars. Michael Douglas is about as big as it gets. Paltrow is absolutely gorgeous, and shows us her appeal early on, and Viggo shows us his pre-Aragorn game. It's also just a really good mystery, with lots of crucial parts whether it's the key or the fabricated blackmail or the wedding ring, etc. etc. A Perfect Murder is just a real pleasure for me.
