Amazon.co.uk Review

Odd teaming of man-of-integrity A-list studio director Sidney Lumet (Twelve Angry Men, Serpico, The Verdict) with muckraking, lively independent screenwriter Larry Cohen (It's Alive, God Told Me To, Q: The Winged Serpent), the court-room drama Guilty As Sin relies rather heavily on the plot of Jagged Edge. Jack Warden reprises Robert Loggia's grumpy but decent private-eye role exactly, while ice-maiden lawyer Rebecca De Mornay is ensnared in a web of duplicity and violence by her client (Don Johnson), accused of murdering his wife. It hasn't got the gravitas of Lumet's best or the maniacal energy of top-rate Cohen film, but as a no-brain thriller it offers a couple of edgy, interesting star performances, with Johnson in particular cutting loose from his image with a display of razor-edged smiling charm as the killer gigolo. --Kim Newman

4.0 out of 5 stars Well done formula with standard twists, 15 Aug 2005
By bernie "xyzzy" (Arlington, Texas) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)      
man (Don Johnson) that looks guilty as sin is accused of murdering his wife He chooses a well proven lawyer (Rebecca De Mornay) to defend him.

Now you are thinking of all those lawyer movies where they get the person off to find them guilty in the end like "Trial and Error" (1962) or the one "Hostile Witness" (1968) with Ray Milland. Well quit thinking that.

Well this is well done in the short time of a movie yet the formula is different. The story will become very apparent and there will be no surprises until the quick end to get it over with scenario.
