High Crimes

2002
Suspense/Thriller
1h 55m
High powered lawyer Claire Kubik finds her world turned upside down when her husband, who she thought was Tom Kubik, is arrested and is revealed to be Ron Chapman. Chapman is on trial for a murder of Latin American villagers while he was in the Marines. Claire soon learns that to navigate the military justice system, she'll need help from the somewhat unconventional Charlie Grimes; meanwhile, Claire's sister, Jackie, is falling in love with wet-behind-the-ears Lieutenant Embry assigned as the official defense lawyer. And most of the eyewitnesses have rather too conveniently died. (imdb)

I hadn't seen "an unexpected twist." for a while. Not the big one but the other one. (Look at me, not giving a spoiler.)

The general course is immediately apparent but the trip a little more pleasurable than expected. Freeman is fun, Amanda Peet and Adam Scott are adorable, and Michael Shannon is inordinately memorable in a bit part as a messed-up marine. Now there's a man who paid his dues. Knocking Morgan Freeman off the wagon and boxing kangaroos.

Part 2 of the "Ashley Judd: Cute as a Button, Suburban Housewife Done Wrong" box set (see also "Double Jeopardy" and "Kiss the Girls"). This time however they managed to channel the normally off-the-charts annoyance factor to Amanda Peet, one of the few actresses capable of out-annoying Ashley Judd. Oh yeah, there's a plot in a there too, an explosion, a resolution and a ridiculously tacked on twist throw in there that made me ask myself "Were they high when they wrote these crimes?"

High Crimes starts off well, soon involving the viewer in the tried and tested "did he or did he not" style of thriller. However things soon develop into a monotonous drawl, something which even Freeman cannot really oppose. After some slightly predictable twists and turns, the plotline suddenly throws in the twist and although it makes a decent attempt of it, suddenly the tension tales off leaving one gigantic plothole and a slightly confused "happily ever after" ending. Not all that great.

Gerçekçi, sürprizli, ritmi iyi. Hikayenin seyrini değiştiren tuhaf olaylar da var. Perde perde açılan bir hikaye, filmde karakterlerin tanıtım şekli başarılı. Filmin en iyi yanı başrol oyuncularının performansları.

Reeeaaaaally fuckin' stupid. Which is pretty unforgivable for a movie that's supposed to be about legal and investigative stuff. Especially, when the main characters act like such fucking idiots. This movie really doesn't know what it wants with all its tonal inconsistencies and unecessary, inconsequential B-plots that couldn't be more unrelated to the story.

Good performances for a copy/paste script. Caviezel almost makes the twist ending not entirely insulting to the audience, but in the end it's a basic court drama with a military flavor.

A very un-Christ-like Caveizel keeps us wondering just what happened in his Marine unit. Judd tries to get him free. Morgan Freeman plays Morgan Freeman playing the same fucking Morgan Freeman role.
