88This is an old-fashioned movie done with wit, grace, smarts and style. [19 March 1999, Friday, p.A]
-
80An electrically paced and brilliantly acted death-row thriller.
-
60It's a gritty story made in the director's more elegiacal mode, a confusion of style and content that is not in the film's best interests.
-
38On the whole, the film is content to lumber awkwardly between the condemned man on death row and the intrepid reporter on his save-a-life beat -- there's about as much rhythm in the style as there is sense in the plot.
