Critic Reviews:
- *"
Vince Vaughn finally gives a performance putting him in the serious actor category, Joaquin Phoenix is notable and Anne Heche is believable as the impassioned attorney fighting for the life of her client. "* – Anthony Miele (Film Threat)
- " The acting is generally good – Vaughn is very convincing as a man forced to make a difficult decision, while Joaquin Phoenix even more convincingly plays a man condemned to die. " – Dragan Antulov (rec.arts.movies.reviews)
- " A quiet, thoughtful movie about hard moral choices, truth, love, accountability, crime, punishment and friendship. " – Robert Roten (Laramie Movie Scope)
