    Watched this very long time back, thought it was kind of a badass twist at the end. For some rather odd reason, I remember a lot of the scenes clearly and have rather fond memories of it.

    Ashley Judd & Morgan freeman - AGAIN - did this pair sign a contract that they would make a certain number of films together?

    Claire's husband Tom is accused of killing 9 people during his military service 13 years earlier. Judd hires another attorney, ending up with threats and losing something she wanted so much. The ending turned out quiet different from what I though! A great thriller that is great to watch!

    Always enjoy watching Morgan Freeman act. Another review I read said that it was watchable but forgettable - and I would have to concur. I was 1/2 through the movie when I realized I had already seen it when it came out!

    Strong acting in a not so unique but well presented story. Watched it on tv a thursday night which was nice enough and probably the just right for this film.

    I like to think that my film ratings are aimed at great performances, storyline etc, rather than how good looking a person is, which is why this film gets a 3. It was an ok film, with ok performances and an ok storyline.

    The reason I say this is because if I had such a thing as a list of good looking actors, then my guess would be, Jim Caviezel would be at the top.

    VERDICT: Watchable, but forgetable

    I was hoping for a lot more. It's entertaining, but that's about as far as it goes. The screenplay isn't all that good and the plot didn't manage to surprise me a bit. They say there's a twist in this movie... Well, I don't actually see it as a twist. More like an attempt of doing so. It was pretty much clear what was going to happen there. And although I was hoping the story line would prove me wrong at some point... it really didn't .
    So, just another watchable movie in my book. Not bad. Not that great either.

    A fantastic thriller, with military and legal all mixed in together. Morgan Freeman is ideally suited to this type of role. A great twist and well executed plot.

    A really good thriller, not perfect, but one of my favourite thrillers.....Judd and Freeman really compliment each other, and are great together....
    I think the plot is unexpected, and the ending is good...

    Ashley always plays the victim and does it very well. Great cast. Story about a husband who is accused of murder and his wife defends him in court. It has a twist though.

    A lot better than I expected it to be. I love Morgan Freeman. He's one of the best actors there is. I don't think this film really does him justice though. I liked the ending. I wasn't really expecting it. I'm glad they chose to do it that way I would be even less satisfyed with the film if they chose to go with the predictably happy ending.

    Was kinda unpredictable, (and I'm one of those who easily can predict what's going to happen next).
    Had a great twist, which I didn't see coming, and talented actors, such as; Judd, Freeman and Caviezel, who really did justice for this movie.
    So, to keep it short: This is a thriller where you don't know what to think or believe, since you really don't know what to expect. I know, sounds confusing, but you're better off watching the movie instead .

    When Ashley and Morgan are in the same room, everything just crackles. That said, not even they could save a piecemeal script from being so piecemeal.

    I am a huge Ashley Judd fan and so natually this is going to be on my favorite list. It also happens to be a fabulous drama suspense movie.

    Yeah. These two on the big screen is bound to be a damn good movie. Kiss the Girls and now High Crimes. Both can play highly intelligent and strong-willed people, so naturally they do very well in this movie. Cavaziel is one hot bad guy though.
