Brief Synopsis – A reporter tries to crack a case in the hours before a prisoner on death row is meant to be executed.
My Take on it – Another great thriller by Clint Eastwood where he is both the director and lead actor. The story plays out really well and shows that there is always hope when one digs into the facts. The cast is superb and it’s great seeing so many talented actors keep popping up along the way. The story also does a nice job of showing how the system both works and is broken at the same time. The twists and turns are enjoyable and they help kepe things engaging throughout.
Recommended!
MovieRob’s Favorite Trivia – Denis Leary stated that he had never watched this movie, believing that his head would explode if he saw himself acting in a scene next to Clint Eastwood. (From IMDB)
