They tried the same plot a thousand times but it was never this good. Edward Norton in his career's first role gives me goosebumps! Awesome.
Edward Norton began his career with a bang - he was amazing in this.
i was going to say, gere has too friendly of a face to be this character, but he started getting better and better throughout the movie. norton again does an amazing job. at first you'll think the whole murder is figured out, but they make it much more interesting with so many po...( read more)
This is a good mystery thriller starring Richard Gere as a lawyer trying to defend a young altar buy accused of murdering a priest. The movie has a solid engaging story and a great cast. Edward Norton in one of his first roles is quite good. A decent thriller with a good plot twi...( read more)
Gere's best... Oh how I hate him so. Norton carries this movie above and beyond my expectations.. IMO this movie allowed Norton to become the actor that he is today... Versitile, and talented through and through. Highly recommended.
Very suspensful crime/thriller/drama. Edward Norton steals the film with an electrifying performance. Great unexpected twists kept me glued to the screen. The whole cast is good. Very exciting film.
A bishop is murdered: Gere defends, Linney prosecutes (and is damn good in this), but the only real reason to watch it is for Edward Norton as the defendant - it's an awesome piece of acting and to say more is to ruin it.
mind blowing, edward norton necessarily won the oscar for this superb performance, one of the best performance ever in my opinion.,
the only thing that bother me is steven bauer, i dunno, i never quite like his acting..
Really dont like Richard Gere, but I thought his performance was brilliant & played the part well. Also this was the first movie I saw Edward Nortan in, also playing the part birlliantly.
Norton's performance in this movie is amazing. All you Edward Norton fans, you need to watch this one.
This was the first movie that I saw with Ed Norton in and it blew me away.
It reminded me of The Usual Suspects because of the ending.
Not only is the story great, the parts by the lawyers wer superb.
Laura Linney owned her role .
Everyone wants that lawyer that everyone's heard...( read more)
These is the movie that made me fallin in love with Edward Norton's act. he's so manipulative!

**probably one of the best movie from both Gere and Norton... great perfomarce by Gere and Norton... cna't believe that this is Nortons first film... Luara Linney is gorgeous... althoguh predicted the twist right in the middle... the ending just came out of nowhere... wanna read ...( read more)
Edward Norton is great in his breakout performance. Laura Linney is also really good. The story is good although I could see the ending coming. Richard Gere is his usual mediocre self.
Pretty exciting, but not much intensity in the story. It feels like I've already seen the movie.
(MAJOR SPOILERS) Edward Norton is excellent in this courtroom drama/psychological thriller. However, I was extremely disappointed by the ending. I'm always on the look for movies that tell the truth about multiple personalities, and this appeared to be, for the most part, accurat...( read more)

Wow, yet another stand-out performance by Edward Norton. And to think, this was his first film.
The story-line is fairly easy to understand, at least to begin with. It's a bit rough in places and it soon becomes complicated in unexpected ways. There are moments when it's...( read more)
hey, what's wrong? becuase i couldn't watch a movie here? it always appear cannot displayed in your region. what am i to do? it seems that that film is so good to watch..
This movie was wonderful. Richard Gere and Edward Norton delivered two of the best performances I have ever seen in and movie of law.
This was one of my favorite movies before. I was very impressed by Norton's acting. Fantastic.
Average thriller that includes however a must see star making scene by Norton.
