One of the best movies ever. OK for older kids.
I saw Rear Window when I was about 10, and even though it scared me a little, I absolutely loved it. This still remains one of my favorite movies - nail-biting suspense, plenty of quirky Hitchcockian details, and charming characters. A masterpiece!

The greatest psychological thriller of all time!
This film is another famous Hitchcock thriller, but this time it is psychological! This movie is brilliant from beginning to end and all is mild in this film with G language, mild discussion of the murder, and the murderer attempts to subdue Jimmy Stewart but fails. Over all this should be ratede G and for 10 and up.

Great for 10+
As an 11-year-old who can get scared rather easily and who just finished the movie a few hours ago, I think that any 10-year-old would love it. Though I thought it was very suspenseful, and a little creepy at times (such as the rolled up mattress), nothing actually shown on screen was all that scary. I'd recommend it to any kid 10 and/or above for sure!

Great family suspense movie
My parents showed me this movie recently. At first I was scared because they told me it was a murder mystery but there is no blood shown at all. A large saw is shown but it is clean. I loved it and it was super interesting! The way it is filmed is really cool and fun to watch because it is showing everything from outside the building. The characters are fun (even though the main character is kinda a stalker), too! Any kid 8+ should enjoy this movie!

Voyaristic Classic!!!
This masterpiece shows Hitchcock's amazing talent of creating great romance, mystery, comedy, and suspense. Everything about this film is just so wonderfully planned and created, the actors were chosen perfectly, and the way Hitchcock brings us into the film and makes us peeping toms like Stewart (which is how the film gets so suspenseful) is amazing. Also, watch the commentary and making of the film feature, you will learn so much amazing facts about the film! Now go watch the film, and see if you can solve the mystery before Jimmy Stewart and Grace Kelly!

MUST - WATCH
Wonderful movie, though the concept of spying on neighbors and murder might be a little much. My little sis (7) was a little bored at the beginning. She was waiting for the murder mystery part. I enjoyed every second of it. (She did too)

No "Rebecca" or "Vertigo" by any means
But I still was very much held in suspense. It is a marvelous thing, all these Hitchcock movies, and how all of them were nearly perfect in all senses of the word. Not meant for children less than, I'd say 10.

A Thrilling and Old-Fashoined Thriller!
If your kids want to see a cool thriller, but you are cautious around big-budget slasher flicks, rent this from Blockbuster and watch it together on a Friday night. Everyone will enjoy themselves, and you won't have to worry about what they're seeing, as this film has little sex, language, and no violence. Language consists of some "hells" and few "d**n"s. There is some playful sexual innuendo between Jimmy Stewart and Grace Kelly (it isn't exactly beating around the bush, but it isn't vulgar at all) that runs along the lines of her spending the night and there only being one bed. A beautiful ballerina exercises in her underwear, and a man attempts to force himself on an unnamed girl (it appears to be more of an embrace gone too far than an attempted rape).

Alfred Hitchcock does it again!
Rear Window is my new favorite movie! I was literally on the edge of my seat watching this. But not for kids- all the suspense. Plus a little dog is strangled which I thought was so sad.

 
A great movie
One of Hitchcock's greatest movies and one of James Stewart's best movies. Suspensful and well done. I watch it over and over.

it was good, but i had to high expectations
Jimmy Stuart and Grace Kelly were great! I like how the whole movie played out in the apartment. I was expecting there to be a more thrilling ending but other than that it was good

This is a masterpiece, and my favorite film of all time. It's a rare type of film that manages to be unbearably suspenseful and fascinating using a minimum of sex and violence, which is quite refreshing. It's an absolutely amazing movie that perfectly blends thrills, romance, and even touches of comedy...a must-see. Good for kids 10+

Mind twisting
I liked it, but twiste your mind.

 
One of the best movies of all time!
Rear window is an absolute masterpiece. The story is well written and the characters well acted and believable. While the movie shows no sex or violence on-screen, the overall theme is quite mature. There are several very tense scenes including one where a woman attemps suicide. The main character spies on his very attractive neighbor as she dances about in her underwear. The ethics of the story are also questionable. Sure the man solved a murder, but should we really be peeking into other people's personal lives? Best for teens and up. Many younger kids will be either scared or bored.
