Jandy Hardesty’s review published on Letterboxd:
Decently enjoyable film set around the making of Psycho, but clearly aimed at the feel-good over-60 crowd. Not that there's anything particularly wrong with that, but if you're expecting a masterpiece or a searing expose on the Master of Suspense, you'll be disappointed. The mimicry from Hopkins and especially D'Arcy (as Perkins) is outstanding, Helen Mirren elevates the whole thing a lot, and ScarJo and Jessica Biel do more than passably as Janet Leigh and Vera Miles, respectively. The on-set portions are fun for Psycho fans, and I enjoyed watching Hopkins and Mirren play off each other - but some of the subplots went on a bit too much, lowering the film into the realm of mundane domestic melodrama too often.
