Watched The Ministry of Fear this afternoon - not too shabby. First 20 mins are first rate as Ray Milland is discharged from an asylum and encounters all kind of weird shit. Dullish plot mechanics take over a bit as they tend to do in these type of noirs but a cool seance livens things up before a rooftop shotout brings some excitement. A real groaner of a last scene is totally out of place and smells of studio insistence. Overall a solid 7/10.
