i saw this on television recently . i remember when i saw it first in the early ninety that it get bad review at the time . i think the critic just have it in for polanski . frantic be dismiss a a poor man hitchcock and though i think it be a pretty good stab at do a hitchcock and suspenseful enough . a devastating chronicle of the disintegration of a relationship . though the role reversal development be do well in bunuel tristana and i thought . i be strike at the time by hugh grant hilarious portrayal of the twit of an englishman . this be an act that soon pal over the decade and however .
