Fracture is a bit of a sleeper hit in 2007 for me. I'm a little ashamed to say I avoided it for so long because it appeared to be just another rehashed psychological thriller. This film is about a young ambitious dis
I absolutely loved this film. I had two theories as to how it would end and one of them was right but I liked that fact that I wasn't sure which one.
It has a few slow spots, but overall a very good movie. The chemistry between Ryan Gosling and Anthony Hopkins is electric. Very entertaining and a fairly decent twist at the end.
Anthony is a wealthy businessman who murders his wife in cold blood for having an affair. An assistant DA is not his match in court and he gets off scot free even though he made a signed confession. Interesting twists in the movie.
It's hard to find such a smart script out there, that delivers more than you expect with every twist and turn. This is one of these films. Adding the protagonists delivery, who are antagonizing each other in way more persuasive a manner than I can describe... and you've got yours...( read more)

Fracture is what audiences want when they go to a suspense thriller: a flashy, colorful villain; a protagonist who's imperfect enough to be interesting; and most of all a story that keeps viewers gues... full review
The movie's logic fails at the end -- it betrays a criminal blind spot in its reasoning -- but you're best off not subjecting it to any prolonged analysis. Don't think. Just watch. full review
The picture is clever, somber, quiet: There's just no reason it has to be as deadly boring as it is. full review
This hugely entertaining thriller is what's needed to banish a winter-long case of movie blues. full review
Just because a movie is freakin' preposterous doesn't mean it can't be diabolical fun. Case in point: Fracture. full review
Powerfully acted and tightly plotted, Fracture is solid entertainment. full review
What makes Fracture hum is the way Hopkins bares his teeth, twitches his nostrils, and trains his shiny pinprick Lecter eyes on his co-star. full review

this is a really good movie anthony hopkins is a great actor he was so smart during the process of hiding the murder weapon .
I went and saw the movie after seeing the preview. It was awesome..as I had expected. Anthony and Ryan played their roles really well. A must see!!
Ya right. Anthony Hopkins is too clever in this movie.. He's soo cool. He palys the movie too good and too cool. Like what eh did in Hanibal.
Seen past films from, Anthony Hopkins, Ryan Gosling. Hopkins from 'Hannibal' and Gosling from 'The Notebook'. Both were good films and good acting from both. Seems like this could be a good thriller.
I like Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling I think this will be a good movie
