Yash B After watching the new version of "Presumed Innocent" I decided to check out the original movie adaptation. I don't know if that made me biased, but I preferred the series over this movie. I think the story is still interesting but this version is very focused on the legal side of the story and feels very talky at times. I still think Harrison Ford is great in this and I liked how the two versions have slightly different conclusions which makes them both feel unique. Overall, this is an okay movie, but I feel if you had to choose one to watch for the first time the Apple TV series surpasses this one in every way. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/25 Full Review Jerod S Harrison is a really unfaithful lawyer that's caught up in a bad trial when his mistress is brutally murdered. It's a classic 90s whodunnit that likes to lead you astray. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/25 Full Review Dennis B I spent the entire series fluctuating between whom I thought was guilty. That was the beauty of this series - no spoilers coming. Thoroughly riveting!!!!!! This was the fastest BINGE WATCH ever.. Big twist ending Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/28/24 Full Review Rich S Harrison Ford >>> Jake Gyllenhaal Playing the same character in a movie and TV series, respectively, 34 years apart, it's easy to see why Ford was so good and Jake is so not Harrison Ford. Want to watch Scott Turow's work done well on the screen? Jump in the time machine and travel back to 1990 and see it all done in less than one-quarter of the screen time as the series. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/03/24 Full Review Dave C There's no arguing that the writing is solid, and that the performances are generally very good. However, it feels very monotonous - especially with HF's narration. There is no tension or suspense, and ultimately when the twist is shown it had already occurred to me. It tries and fails to be a steamy courtroom thriller, instead presenting itself as a heavily clichéd, prescriptive drama Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/10/24 Full Review Bill B Note, spoilers below. This show is extremely difficult to recommend in spite of some good to very good performances. It’s hard to take a cliche ridden 80’s novel and make it relevant in 2024. First, the legal proceedings are absurd, no judge would have allowed this trial to go to jury. Second, the victim in this story is completely forgotten after the killer is revealed and everyone just goes on with their lives. In the end, the show fails to live up to its potential, the mystery is so disappointing I wish we never found out who the killer was.
