Reviews for High Crimes
Top CriticIsn't worth the crayons it took to write the script.
04/05/02
Top CriticA formulaic thriller ending that's so predictable and ridiculous that it's hard to watch with a straight face.
04/05/02
There ought to be a law against what they do to Morgan Freeman in High Crimes.
04/05/02
Top CriticDirector Carl Franklin, so crisp and economical in One False Move, bogs down in genre cliches here.
04/05/02
High Crimes is hardly high art, but thanks to Freeman, it'll do until something better comes along.
04/05/02
High Crimes has some faults, but it manages to keep its audience either angry or jumpy from start to finish.
04/05/02
Top Critic[Morgan], Judd and Franklin can't save the script, rooted in a novel by Joseph Finder, from some opportunism.
04/05/02
With lesser talents, High Crimes would be entertaining, but forgettable. With Freeman and Judd, I'll at least remember their characters.
04/05/02
The movie's ultimate failure has more to do with its poor mastery of the basics, like keeping a tight rein on a complicated narrative.
04/05/02
Claire is a terrific role for someone like Judd, who really ought to be playing villains.
04/05/02
How can so many rights make so many wrongs?
04/05/02
Ludicrous, but director Carl Franklin adds enough flourishes and freak-outs to make it entertaining.
04/05/02
Top CriticHigh Crimes shines in the courtroom thriller genre, a genre that hasn't seen much noteworthy action of late.
04/05/02
If High Crimes were any more generic it would have a universal product code instead of a title.
04/05/02
I expected better from director Carl Franklin.
04/05/02
Superb plot twists and acting keep viewer guessing in High Crimes.
04/05/02
High Crimes steals so freely from other movies and combines enough disparate types of films that it can't help but engage an audience.
04/05/02
Top CriticFor all its surface frenzy, High Crimes should be charged with loitering -- so much on view, so little to offer.
04/05/02
Complex, lucid and exciting, High Crimes strikes a near-perfect balance between plot and character.
