Good movie! I don't know what the beef is with those critics. Intense movie, good stuff.

Critic Reviews

This is the second movie Judd and Freeman have made together (after "Kiss the Girls" in 1997). They're both good at projecting a kind of Southern intelligence that knows its way around the frailties of human nature.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Has some faults, but it manages to keep its audience either angry or jumpy from start to finish.Full Review

Mick LaSalle
San Francisco Chronicle

Satisfies a hunger for the basics: a decent mystery to chew on, a bit of juicy suspense, maybe a plot twist as garnish. The fare is all on the standard menu, but it goes down well just the same.Full Review

Michael O'Sullivan
Washington Post

The problem with High Crimes, acceptable though it is, is that it's not close to anyone's best work.Full Review

Kenneth Turan
Los Angeles Times

Ms. Judd commands the screen with consistent authority, and Mr. Freeman brings expansive humor to the role of a self-styled wildcard who's still dangerous in court.Full Review
