Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Nick Damian Yes, it was a little bit unbelievable that the Judge's son would be the one he hired to kill the person he raped so that she won't blackmail him.It was awesome though and kept me interested the entire movie.It's a little gem - not a diamond by any means, but a gem - something like a copycat diamond. With enough sparkle to amuse and delight and please, but not something that is treasured for years to come.I enjoyed the story, the performances and the fact that my home was once again used in the film.I must have lived in the most awesome places on Earth, because they keep being used in movies.Anyways, it's a cool little crafty number that delighted me.

Neil Welch Let me first of all cast a vote against the title. I particularly dislike titling stories by just adding "The" before a relevant words. Horror novels are particularly prone to this, and I think, "So you couldn't think of a proper title, then?" For the most part, this is a moderately predictable suspense thriller, though it has one or two moments which are a little unexpected. Spoiler: the fact that Sophie is, indeed, murdered surprised me. I expected her to be rescued. And the final denouement is nicely realised: the kicker is fairly given away early, but nicely hidden/forgotten until the last moment. All of this was satisfying.The thing that bugged me were the coincidences, principally that Nathan a) was Calum's son and b) already knew Sophie when Calum recruited him into the plot to murder her. The story would have worked just as well (subject to only minor rewriting), and would have been more credible, if neither of these coincidences had been present.Oh well. It passed a couple of hours satisfactorily.

felicia blake I saw this movie last night and was pleasantly surprised at what a good thriller it was.I won't give the plot away, but this film is full of twists and turns.At first I thought it was a long-lost son searching for his father, then I thought it was about a woman wronged. It had so many sub-plots, characters with agenda's and surprises galore.Devon Sawa (Final Destination) and Bll Pullman (Independance Day) are excellent in their roles, and add to the viewing pleasure.It starts out slowly, but gathers pace at an alarming rate.A buried treasure!

The_Void Bill Pullman enjoys himself as the bad guy in this excellent, traditionally styled neo-noir thriller. Lawyer, Callum Crane in is line for appointment for a position as a federal judge, but just after his appointment he is accused of rape by a female colleague that he forced himself upon while drunk. Meanwhile, the lawyer's son, Nathan has found out the identity of his biological father, also Callum Crane, and sets off to the city in order to find him. Before he is able to tell his father who is he is, he is given an envelope and is offered money to take care of the problem; by killing the girl that has accused Callum Crane of murder.The story, despite it's relative complexity, unfolds in a manner that is easy and interesting to follow as a result of the excellent storytelling. The plot unfolds bit by bit, which serves in building suspense and also makes the film interesting as the audience is fed just enough to keep them interested, but not enough so that the film is able to become predictable; which makes for a very thrilling thriller.The acting in The Guilty varies from mediocre, to great; with Bill Pullman at the top end of the spectrum, and Gabrielle Anwar at the other end. That's not to say that she's particularly bad though; a lot of her rather insignificant performance can be put down to a lack of depth for her character. None of the characters in The Guilty are particularly well done, but the majority of them don't need to be, and the film is efficient in that it doesn't waste lots of time building up characters that are not central to the plot. Also worthy of note acting wise is Jaimz Woolvett, the man that plays Leo; who is undoubtedly one of the main players of the piece. Jaimz portrays his character with a great deal of strength and rawness and is absolutely perfect in his role. Jaimz Woolvett is best known for his role as The Schofield Kid in Unforgiven, and the fact that he hasn't made anything else of note since is a real shame as he has proved with this movie and Unforgiven that he is capable of a powerful and emotional performance.The Guilty, like many thrillers, features plenty of twists and turns to keep the audience hooked, but none are as amusing, well done or satisfying as the end one. The movie saves its best trick to last and the end of this movie is bound to put a smile on any viewer's face. One of my favourite twist endings without a doubt.Overall, The Guilty is a very good thriller. Unlike a lot of it's modern day counterparts, this film doesn't rely on violence or loud music to make itself worth watching, but rather on the more old-fashioned methods such as strength of storytelling and interesting performances from everyone involved. The Guilty is not a great movie, but as far as modern day thrillers go; this is not a bad example.
