  An interesting movie. Harrison Ford is Rusty Savage, a prosecutor. One of his fellow prosecutors is murdered and Rusty is charged with murder. You have to see the movie to find out who did it. On second watch, a couple years after the first, I downgraded my rating a bit. The movie is almost too obscure.

  I have to start this off by saying I LOVE HARRISON FORD! It's rare that he's in a movie I don't like. With that said, I'm going to go ahead and say I liked this movie too. It had twists, sex, dirty politicians, affairs and amazing acting. I loved the ending.

  First of all, I'll like to admit that I wasn't quite able to predict the culprit in this whodunit, which is something that doesn't happen often (almost negligible). Despite of that fact, surprisingly I didn't like the movie much. Actually, I didn't care who it… More
  First of all, I'll like to admit that I wasn't quite able to predict the culprit in this whodunit, which is something that doesn't happen often (almost negligible). Despite of that fact, surprisingly I didn't like the movie much. Actually, I didn't care who it was by the time it reached the ending. Furthermore, I'm not sure what made me react this way!!! My best guess is that the (horrible) acting department was to be blamed for it. While Harrison Ford was terrible, all the others were mediocre. As if everyone was sleepwalking!!! Sorry, not everyone. One actor was simply outstanding: Raul Julia. He succeeded in making the movie bearable, at least for me.

  Attraction. Desire. Deception. Murder. No one is ever completely innocent.

  It was a bland script with very little originality or depth. The acting was mediocre, even from Harrison Ford. I feel that with better direction and visual personality, it could have been a better film. It had too many cliches of the genre and didn't come off as suspenseful in the slightest.

  Brilliant thriller. Harrison is a lawyer. He has an affair and then his mistress is murdered but who dunnit? He goes on trial for murder.

  Let?s start with the title here ? is it a bluff? ? is it a double bluff? Well that of course is what you need to find out. This is a film that starts off on a fairly slow pace and remains pretty slow throughout, however the storyline, somehow keeps your attention. Not a great Whodunnit Thriller, but one that?s worth watching if it comes on TV.

  Presumed Innocent starring Harrison Ford, Raul Julia, Bonnie Bedelia, Greta Scacchi, and Brian Dennehy is a very good crime drama. I have read the best selling novel from Scott Torrow over a decade ago and it quickly became one of my favorite reads...the film does it justice. The film centers on a very good prosecutor finds that a one time affair with another up and coming prosecutor is found deas is caught up in a very lengthy scheme of whom killed her. There are many lies and twist and turns that will find you very interested in this film from start to finish...a very godo casting for the film as well....very well done...see it!!

  Reasonably well handled thriller in which Harrison Ford's ludicrously monickered lawyer appears to be guilty of murdering his ex-lover. A decent twist and some nice moral ambiguity. A little cliched, but solid entertainment.

  Cool mystery story of Ford, on screen with that haircut, is accused of murdering his ex-mistress.

  Presumed Innocent was a brilliantly scripted courtroom drama that grabs the audience's attention from the opening scene where Harrison Ford narrates. Let me start off by saying that Harrison Ford kills this role, I mean he is always playing a tough guy but here is a bit of a twist than what he usually does. Ford plays one person with his family, and another person in his job, and I think that is some very good acting. The rest of the cast is mediocre and not really memorable, but there are still no bad performances in the film. What i love about the script is that they give you so many different outcomes, we are asking ourselves "is it him?" I will not spoil anything for you, but what I will tell you is that I always enjoy the mystery courtroom films as long as they do it correctly, and Presumed Innocent goes beyond that. They give us a nice family, a job, and a set up. But soon we learn more and more unfold about this mans life and we start to question things about the case and it really teases the audience with its clues. Maybe I am also a sucker for twist endings, but as long as they make a good twist ending (like The Sixth Sense) instead of a stupid twist ending (like The Village) than I am happy. Presumed Innocent is a great mystery courtroom drama, and will be a breath of fresh air for those that courtroom films are starting to lose their touch.

  Given my general distaste for legal thrillers, I was surprised by how much I ended up liking this. Harrison Ford is outstanding, probably one of the few lawyer performances that utilizes brevity and nuance over grandstanding and blustery speech making. The same can be said of Pakula's direction and the script. The inherent irony of the title is perhaps hammered in a little too hard in the end, but it still manages to stay within the realm of intriguing moral ambiguity.

  As much as you'd think this was predictable because the amount of times it has been done, it actually wasn't. I didn't know who the killer was and I was quite shocked. It took me a while to understand and to really sit down and concentrate on the film but by the middle you were enticed and wanting to find out who could do such a terrible thing. A good thriller that has a different approach and something different than all the other flms that have the same sort of storyline.

  "Presumed Innocent" follows the story of hot-shot prosecutor Rusty Sabich who finds himself framed for the murder of his colleague, a beautiful young woman who used to be a mistress and who was recently found dead, slaughtered by someone who left behind little clues. The movie keeps you guessing throughout as to his guilt or innocence. The late Raul Julia was absolutely fantastic in his role as a great defense lawyer and is determined to prove that Rusty is not the murderer. But if this is the truth, then how does all the evidence point directly to him? It's filled with intrigue and suspense and the ending was masterfully done. Harrison Ford is terrific as the man, struggling to prove his innocence.

• Doctor S

  
  Tense mystery with several clever but plausible red herrings. One of Harrison Ford's finest performances.

• Barry L

  
  Brilliant and powerful.
