RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
merklekranz Rachel Ward sparks up the screen with an intricate plot to win back former love Bruce Boxleitner. Their nude shower scene is certainly a highlight, but is then followed by at least a bunch of legal mumbo jumbo. Unfortunately the beginning and ending rock climbing scenes come across like add ons, almost as if they belong in a completely different film. While not always believable, the deceitful murder story does hold interest. Sela Ward as the deceived wife is quite good. I could have lived without the Salt Lake City religious influences trumpeted throughout the movie. Some parts such as the rock climbing look simply silly, however there are strong sexy moments throughout. - MERK
culwin This movie is not very thrilling and there are no plot "twists and turns" to speak of. I don't even know why this movie is called "Double Jeopardy". The trial ends 10 minutes before the end of the movie, when everything is revealed and the movie ends. A very stupid ending as well. The only thing that will keep you guessing is when something interesting is going to happen. All the actors do a good job and the director does fine with what he has to work with, but in the end, this could have been a good movie if only they had a good script to work with.
Ed Uthman Registering quite a bit above the typical made-for-TV potboiler, DOUBLE JEOPARDY features the fine acting of Bruce Boxleitner, Sela Ward, and Rachael Ward. The screenwriter cleverly lulls the viewer by seeming to go down predictable paths only to suddenly employ unexpected twists. The weak point of the film is the ending, which of course is a big weak point, but still this movie is worth a cable viewing.The version I saw was on TNT (a nonpremium cable network) and probably bowdlerized, so I cannot comment on the racier aspects that may have survived on some rental version.
MovieFan983 I personally didn't think it was the best, it was kinda dumb, but it did keep you guessing. I give it a 4 out of 10. Unrated contains sexual content, violence, and some language.
