High Crimes

Another woman-in-peril movie from Ashley Judd, very similar in its pseudo-feminist tone to Double Jeopardy, Eye of the Beholder and Where the Heart Is. This time she stars as a glitzy lawyer defending her husband (Jim Caviezel) against a military conspiracy. There’s plenty of emotional manipulation here (including the callously casual use of a miscarriage as a plot point), but even that pales in comparison to the movie’s ludicrious narrative.

“Although swords strike and blood flows, Yojimbo mostly registers as a comedy.”
