It looks pretty okay... But it just seems like this is Hopkins is doing his 'boo, hiss' villain thing again. You can almost see the "Silence of the Lambs" comparisons in the trailers of his and Gosling's exchanges... I like the idea of it though, guy murders his wife and then twists the legal system around his little finger to escape justice.... ^_^

I know what you mean, but going by reviews, it is by far his best performance since 'Silence of the lambs'. I've read that the character he plays is'nt as charming as Lecter, much more of a serious type. He's such an amazing actor though, and he's 70 this year. I always thought he was about 80 myself. :lol:

ummmm another bad movie... I guess is just average.

 

Have you seen it? :unsure: It seemed to have got mostly great reviews. I cannot say I'm in the mood for another 'Preminition' tbh, why i went to see that after all the negetivity I'll never know. Utterly appauling. <_<

It's a pretty solid Legal thriller mate... Not brilliant, but certainly nowhere near as cretinous as "Premonition".... It's satisfying enough, does exactly what it sets out to do and holds your attention for an hour and three quarters.... Well acted as well, obviously seeing as how the great "Sir Anthony" is in it :lol: , but young Ryan Gosling more than holds up well and certainly is not over-awed by Hopkins' considerable screen presence....

 

I'd give it a 6.... Which is 6 more than I gave to "Premonition"..... :lol:

Yep, I enjoyed it. Great acting by both Hopkins and Gosling. Very clever script with a good ending. ^_^
