Reversal of Fortune Reviews
Time Out
Top CriticThis is a strange, unsatisfactory mixture of satire and docudrama which engages the mind and leaves the emotions intact.
What happened? Who knows? The movie's strength is its ability to tantalize, to turn the case this way and that, so that the light of evidence falls in one way and then another. You tell me.

This is a movie rich in moral ambiguities and one which should thoroughly please voyeurs and detective story enthusiasts alike.

What it all adds up to is something the film never quite seems prepared to address, but this is a fascinating look at all the secondary questions.
It is a finely detailed manners study of the superwealthy, a drama of conflicting principles and values and an engrossing legal detective story.

Reversal of Fortune is an often chilly movie, but the chill cuts to the bone.
