JB: I'd like to apologize for having this movie in the review section. Hanks (fresh from... Big?) stars as McCoy, a rich stockbroker type who hits a young African American kid... with his car. Willis (fresh from... In Country?) stars as the seedy journalist who exposes him. Griffith (fresh from Banderas's dressing room) is McCoy's secret lover, who convinces him to cover it up. Freeman and Abraham (can you see where this is going here?) help out for weak courtroom scenes. Bad casting, bad directing, and bad writing make us wonder if DePalma can sleep at night. One of the few movies Hanks was NOT nominated for.

Shawn: After a movie like this, I'm not sure why DePalma was still allowed to make movies. The Hollywood industry would have saved us from so much torture to come if they would have denied him movie-making privelages after he made this piece of crap. I'm sure this movie is used in third-world countries to torture prison inmates.
