by dragonfire88  in Movies,  - Top 50, Apr 19 '02
Pros: Suspenseful plot. Ashley Judd and Morgan Freeman.
Cons: A few things were unresolved.
I have seen several movies that Ashley Judd has been in over the years. I’ve liked all her movies that I have seen. Her newest, High Crimes, is no different. It is a very suspenseful movie, and I really enjoyed it. Morgan Freeman, ...

Pros: Non-stop plot twists that will leave you guessing all the way.
Cons: VERY tough to follow! Christmas music... blech!

Yeap, High Crimes gets the dubious honor of being one of my birthday presents :) It's an undeniable phenomenon...

by lemon_lime - Top 1000, Dec 09 '02
Pros: Morgan Freeman
Cons: All the parts weren't played by Freeman (which would have been neat)
I wonder about the Judd/Freeman films lineage in Hollywood history. On one hand, they put out different versions of similar stories again and again (this marking their fourth collaboration). On the other hand, I can't remember any of the films very...

Pros: Caviezel, Freeman, Judd and Scott, the plot
Cons: A few questions (deliberately left? at the end
While not a movie that will long be remembered High Crimes is different enough from the routine to be interesting. It is a roller coaster ride of plot twists and some excellent performances by some fine actors/actresses. If you are a Morgan...

Pros: Ashley Judd's performance
Cons: Copycat story that wanders, meanders and cant decide what it wants to be
I think Carl Franklin and company watched A Few Good Men, one too many times. High Crimes is Franklin’s entry into an already crowded genre of military courtroom dramas, most of which have been done much better than this one has. Franklin pulls out...

Pros: Morgan Freeman, Ashley Judd, solid story, well crafted scripting.
Cons: I'll watch it again and get back to you later....
High Crimes brings Ashley Judd and Morgan Freeman together again, working as well as they did in 1997's thriller, Kiss The Girls. In this outing Judd plays superwoman lawyer Claire Kubik, who alternates her time between trying cases in...

by epinionsuser - Top 1000, Apr 12 '02
Pros: Great acting
Cons: Very predictable, and the ending...ech!
Why do good actors always pick bad scripts?
Perhaps they see something in the screenplay that we don't. Maybe it's because it could present the chance for certain actors to be in the same movie together again.
Regardless of the...

Pros: fast paced movie,on the edge of my seat
Cons: nothing
My husband and recently had a date night. He really wasn't interested in seeing the movie I wanted to see, High Crimes. I knew from the moment that I saw the preview that it would be good. I am a big fan of Ashley Judd, who stars in the...

by pach1908 , Apr 06 '02
Pros: more than enough heft to withdraw any objections
Cons: the finale, but like I said, objection withdrawn.
High Crimes belongs in an elite class. The only film I can think of that pulls off the same trick -- The Negotiator, a film nothing like High Crimes except for one important aspect. Both films so utterly believe in their premises, their unbelievable...

by mrbrown - Top 1000, Apr 10 '02
Pros: Ashley Judd and Morgan Freeman still work well together.
Cons: Dull and insanely predictable.
What has happened to Carl Franklin? He made such a promising splash with the gritty 1992 crime thriller One False Move, and followed that up with 1995's Devil in a Blue Dress, a memorable film noir that gave Denzel Washington and Don...

Pros: The suspense, the cast, the plot... definitely a must-see
Cons: I would have changed the ending a little.
High Crimes is a suspenseful military court drama starring, among others in a great cast, Ashley Judd and Morgan Freeman. Judd is attorney Claire Cubick, married to a seemingly perfect man, Tom. Claire is about to be made partner in her law firm...

Pros: Judd and Freeman's combined powerful presence
Cons: Shallow script, uneven pacing and sloppy editing
GRADE: C-
Talk about standing by your man.
"High Crimes," the latest film from director Carl Franklin, brings new meaning to that phrase females have heard and probably shunned thousands of times. But Claire Kubick (Ashley Judd), a...

by filmchic , Apr 14 '02
Pros: Morgan Freeman plays his part excellently.
Cons: The movie had way too many twists.
I went to Universal Studios, and we really didn't have anything else to do but watch a movie. The guy at the theater who took our tickets had not seen this movie, yet he told us that it would be just like Double Jeopardy, and it was not even close.

by winfotech , Aug 23 '02
Pros: Ashley Judd rips from tears through fierce in twisting rollercoaster plotting.
Cons: Morgan Freeman is under-utilized in a character with less depth than he deserves
The winningest part of the formula for another movie starring Ashley Judd and Morgan Freeman is just that they make such an appealing combination. If you've enjoyed them before, you're certainly going to like this one. The directing tries for a few...
