I searched for the best 'suspense' movies and this movie released in 1931 came up in the list, I downloaded it because of the name -M- just a single alphabet nothing else. It turned out to be a German movie thankfully the subtitles came along with the download.
The movie begins with the search of a unknown serial killer who kills children and that is where the resemblance with other suspense films disappear!!!!!
The murderers identity is revealed very shortly and the viewer wonders "what will they show in the next one and half hours ?"
The underworld is fed up of this killer as because of him the police has been raiding them and making their life very difficult. In order to survive thy must find this killer as they think Police cannot do the job.
On the other hand the police also is in a meeting trying to find the killer by changing their strategy. Two different investigations start simultaneously, one by the police and the other by the thugs, it becomes like a race, while watching it you can feel the tension about the winner of the race. Brilliant movie absolutely different from the so called suspense movies. The final court room scene is ULTIMATE!!
