Audience Member George Hamilton had his feature film debut in this updated version of Dostoyevsky's novel. Hamilton plays a poor law student who gets caught up in a robber and murder. It's okay, but a rather stiff and self serious melodrama. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member just ok hamilton debut Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Really goood movie to watch Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member For someone without any knowledge about the original story, this movie is a drag. Might revisit it if I ever read the book. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
