      Audience Member Patrick Muldoon's poor acting is a real drag on the movie and the interactions with Cathy Moriarty and the rest of the cast. There are an awful lot of longshot coincidences and "lucky breaks" that are necessary to drive the plot, and there are a lot of silly contrivances that do not work. And the self-righteous speeches are way over the top. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member This is not a particularly thrilling thriller. It's an okay movie, the cast does well, but it just isn't compelling enough for it to work. It does try, it just doesn't happen. Mundane score. Nothing special.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Lousy acting, poor sound and a weak story. This movie has it all. Who was the audience for this movie? Were we supposed to be upset because some serial killers were being killed? I had a hard time working up any sympathy for them, especially the pedophile they throw off the bridge. I actually agreed more with the "bad guys" in this movie than the "hero". This was a much better movie idea when it was called Star Chamber. At least in that movie there was some doubt about the guilt of one of the suspects. In this movie all of the suspects were guilty and deserved to be punished. It would have been better if there were some grey in this black and white presentation. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member the box made this movie sound sweeter than it was Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
