Led by a gripping performance from Christopher Eccleston, Let Him Have It sounds a compelling call for justice on behalf of its real-life protagonist.

Courtenay slowly works his way into the center of the movie's sympathies. When he embraces his remaining family at the moment of his son's execution, his sorrow seems boundless. Oct 28, 2014 | Full Review…

As the protagonist/victim, Eccleston gives a superb, riveting performance in his feature-film debut, as does Reynolds, another newcomer who deftly handles the role of the gun-crazy and trigger-happy Chris. Oct 28, 2014 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

Let Him Have It is unabashedly weighted toward the perspective of the murderer as victim -- a notion that does not enjoy much public currency in our more violent times. But if ever there was a victim of the judicial system, it was Derek Bentley. Oct 28, 2014 | Rating: 4/4 | Full Review…

The script, by Neal Purvis and Robert Wade, finds enough quirks in its protagonists to lift them above the issues-movie premise. Michael Kamen's atmospheric chamber score is also crucial to the film's success. Oct 28, 2014 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

Fairness isn't the issue here, dramatic depth is: You don't have to favor capital punishment to feel yourself being manipulated. Oct 28, 2014 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The last 30 minutes of the story are overwhelmingly strong, blending human drama and social history into a series of extremely moving scenes, leading to a brief coda that's as unexpected and audacious as anything seen on a movie screen in years. Oct 28, 2014 | Full Review…

It's the kind of resonant, controlled and moving film that is all but unmakeable in America today. More's the shame. Oct 28, 2014 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

It does not follow that behind every great miscarriage of justice lies a great movie. Case in point: the well-intentioned but ultimately unsatisfying Let Him Have It. Oct 28, 2014 | Full Review…

This recreation seethes with quiet outrage, building, albeit slowly, to a climax that should put anyone who favours state retribution over rehabilitation to shame. Oct 28, 2014 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
