I think Ashley Judd is stuck in some sort of timeloop in the late 90s. It would explain why a) she disappeared, and b) every few years, another piece of crap legal thriller from the 90s shows up with her face on it. A lot of this was filmed locally, including a car chase that's about a 3min walk away from my house. That's the main reason I watched the whole thing. It has a clever concept but it's just such a piece of shit. I am glad though that Tommy Lee Jones has moved on from movies like this.

I'll take "Uninspired, Nonsensical Crime Thrillers with Ashley Judd for 200, Alex".

I don't blame Jones, he is capable and watchable in almost anything. He is a working actor and will take just about any part for pay. Judd however is not very talented and was responsible for quite a few crappers.

Derivative legal/revenge thriller that doesn't offer much you haven't already seen, but it's all competently done and Ashley Judd is very attractive. You could do worse.

Boring and unoriginal. This should have just been a made for TV Lifetime feature. Wasted talent, wasted time.

The defect of the film is to be very predictable. The story is not so bad, but leaves many holes.

I kept trying to write a review and then realizing I was talking about a different movie partway through.

this is Ashley Judd s big star vechicle..its basically the lifetime version of the Fugitive with a female and Tommy Lee Jones hamming it up in the same role he did for almost 9 movies...if you seen one of these movies you seen them all this offers nothing new or even close to being or trying to be original...lame

Definitely an entertaining novel idea, albeit completely inaccurate. Ashley Judd and Tommy Lee Jones carry this otherwise cliched screenplay without much else. Greenwood was a good villain. The kids were wooden. I'm disappointed Angie died offscreen and didn't do much. Same with all sorts of other characters they introduced that either didn't serve a purpose (NOLA cops) or never went anywhere (prison friends; island cops). Fav scene: library computer guy; beautiful underwater and cemetery shots.
