Movie Reviews

TIME Magazine - 8/10 by Richard SchickelWoods' angry energy is clarifying as well as terrifying, and when he unleashes it (usually without warning), the effect is to focus our attention where it belongs, not on a suspense story but on the mysteries of human behavior.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertThe case involves lots of flaws in the original trial: unreliable eyewitnesses, time discrepancies, conflicts of interest. In other hands, this material might seem familiar, but Woods puts a spin on it, an intensity that makes it feel important - to him, and therefore to us.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Desson ThomsonJames Woods, a bushy-tailed attorney, goes the distance with the powers that be and makes "True Believer" a legal blast.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Hal HinsonTrue Believer is a thriller about moral rejuvenation, and there's not much wrong with it that another actor in the lead wouldn't cure.
KFOR Channel 4 News - 8/10 by Blake DavisOne of the best courtroom dramas ever made, and a movie that almost nobody knows about. A terrific picture.
Spirituality and Practice - 8/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatReally clicks as a modern day morality play.
The New York Times - 7/10 by Janet MaslinThe film's view of Eddie Dodd is occasionally on the facile side, but Mr. Woods's performance is crackling and passionate enough to give the character depth despite that; it's also laced with snappish, self-mocking humor that Mr. Woods delivers particularly well. This performance is so razor-sharp that Eddie can be seen coming alive with each little triumph, reveling in each little maneuver and taking each little disappointment terribly hard. His enthusiasm is irresistible.
Los Angeles Times - 4/10 by Sheila BensonRuben’s stylistic devices, his high angle shots and his black-and-white recountings of courtroom testimony, become just so much cinematic corpse-rouging.
User Review - 10/10 by DarrylWon't know until the end. The way thrillers are suppose to be. Awesome Movie!!
User Review - 10/10 by MEC rMan, what an incredible flick this is. If you haven't seen this, rent it *now*.
