Description

Ben Chase is an on-the-rise Boston attorney currently defending a wealthy client in a high profile murder case. Martin Thiel is the wealthy young man on trial for a particularly brutal murder. The verdict sets Thiel free. Within 24 hours another grizzly and all-too-familiar murder has taken place with striking similarities to the first crime. As suspicions mount, Thiel contacts Chase to once again defend him. Realizing his culpability in having allowed Thiel to walk free after the first trial, Chase inexplicably agrees to act as his defense attorney; but this time it will be to gather evidence that will put away his client for good. But who's manipulating who in this edge-of-your-seat thrill ride?

Criminal Law co-stars Tess Harper (Tender Mercies), Karen Young (9 1/2 Weeks) and Joe Don Baker (Walking Tall) in a film directed by Martin Campbell (Casino Royale, GoldenEye) from a screenplay written by Mark Kasdan.

ein "okay" Movie

Written on 21. March 2015 by Newman.
This customer review refers to a alternative version.

Gary Oldman und Kevin Bacon machen ihre Sache gut finde ich, aber der Film ist einfach ein wenig langweilig. Die Atmosphäre im Film ist ebenfalls gut, aber die Story kommt leider nur schleppend voran.
