This is a good film, and well worth watching.
If for nothing other than Ryan Goslings incredible performance.
Judge for yourselves if the case presented, and the way it is resolved, works.
It really is worth the watch.
Especially all the dialog between him and Hopkins, reminiscence of the "Lector" discussions with Foster and Norton.
shareLoved the movie, but thought Gosling was sort of the weak link. Hopkins was incredible -- but to play opposite him they needed someone like a male Jodie Foster, a young Tom Hanks. Even a younger Tom Cruise would have smacked this out of the park (think Tom Cruise against Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men)
Gosling did "OK", but give me someone of Oscar caliber to play against Oscar caliber. :)
I have 2 degrees in Criminal Justice and although I am not an attorney or in law enforcement I found the movie enjoyable. It was a good movie to watch. Everyone was at the top of their game in this movie. Each actor brought something to the movie and the casting was excellent.
I have taken many literature classes and have analyzed many characters-- I watched this movie purely for pleasure and did not read 2 deeply into the movie just enjoyed watching the movie.
It is worth purchasing. An excellent movie. Everyone did a great job. I liked all the actors in this movie.
We are about to embark upon a procedure the CIA was more than willing to use on me I must say I find the reversal a tad ironic Sark Alias

I agree, Gosling's wonderful in Fracture, as is Hopkins. I love the movie.
