75There's something heartening about a film that aspires to do nothing but entertain -- and does.
-
75Entertainment made well enough that you can overlook its absurdities.
-
70A solo "Thelma and Louise" crossed with a gender-reversed "The Fugitive" with a dry twist of "Fletch."
-
67Loaded down with credibility problems.
-
63Not a successful thriller, but with some nice dramatic scenes along with the dumb mystery and contrived conclusion.
-
63There are a few ingenious zig zags in its otherwise by-the-numbers plot...but what keeps you interested... is the sheer movie-star presence of the actors in the lead roles.
-
63Judd is pretty much on her own - an assignment she mostly can handle with aplomb.
-
55Jones' pursuit of Judd follows the tried-but-true plotline of winding cat-and-mouse chases that lead to big climaxes.
-
50Bad in a good way if you appreciate this sort of silly thriller.
-
50Preposterous, if diverting, revenge fantasy that rivals Rambo in sheer narrative chutzpah and vigilantism.
-
It's just too bad that you can see everything coming from a mile away.
-
50On a simplistic level, the movie works as a revenge fantasy...Yet anybody who thought about the movie for two minutes would have to conclude it couldn't happen.
-
50An adequate popcorn matinee flick that's anchored by Judd's wonderful lead performance -- a performance that is better than the film earns or deserves.
-
50A generally dumb movie with a smart, appealing, gutsy leading lady.
-
50For all its familiar conventions and hoary improbabilities, Double Jeopardy is a relatively efficient model of its kind.
-
50Despite fine casting...familiarity sets in and lack of surprises directly lessen what could have been emotionally gripping.
-
40Whether this riot of unrepentant trashiness strikes you as tediously ridiculous or brainlessly amusing is probably a matter of mood.
-
40An intermittently engaging thriller.
-
40All promise and no payoff.
-
40Would-be Hitchcockian cat-and-mouse games...are more memorable for their settings...than for their sense.
-
38So nonsensical you don't understand why anyone would actually make it.
-
38So riddled with plot holes and implausible actions, you can't help feeling insulted by it.
-
33This toothless thriller...feels like a strained reworking of ''The Fugitive.''
-
33A carnival of stupid coincidences, paper-thin characterizations, and inept staging, lighting and montage.
-
30Predictable piffle, a comically unbelievable story that leaves almost no impression except what a sham our legal system is.
-
30Judd is slumming again in ths lame suspense yarn that could barely pass as a TV quickie without the bankable names of Judd, Tommy Lee Jones and director Bruce Beresford.
-
30Seems to be an exercise not unlike the phone-booth stuffing of the '50s; namely, let's see how much plot we can fit into a movie before it bursts.
-
30In this inept thriller...the script is a coloring book, and the director's careful to stay within the lines.
-
20Beginning with an intriguing premise, which it manages to squander in record time, it turns out to be a thinly imagined, thinly acted, silly exercise in car crashes, chases and nasty outbursts of generic violence.
-
11It has no subtlety, no shadings, and no suspense, and might as well not have a screenplay.
