I wanted to but couldn't!

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

Don't Believe the Hype

Best movie ever!

I love Patricia Cornwell, and I'm grateful to the high heavens that this movie wasn't how I discovered her. I didn't like this movie. The novel which I have read for umpteenth times is way better.

This movie seems like it'd have done better as a 1 hour TV flick. Cut out the gratuitous bits (the hunka-hunka-burning'love footage of the male lead, and other filler stuff, and it might have had some chance of making the viewer think "gee...who dunnit" instead of "gee...is it over yet?" The storyline isn't bad - the bringing back to life a cold case with unexpected results is a decent theme. But there's just too much stuff in between to create suspense, and none of it adds to either the story or the characters. Sorry - I actually do like Cornwell's books. This movie does nothing really to capture what's in them. I'm giving it the extra star for (yes, paraphrasing joe bob briggs) the shiny pennies fu and the exploding bad rasta fu.

This is truly awful everyone involved should be ashamed of themselves. The plot is wafer thin, I've read a lot of Patricia Cornwell's stuff and its seems to have been a vanity project for her. There is however one truly funny bit where there is a full length video within in, with just shots of Win,it brings nothing at all to the story its just thrown in. The acting if thats what you can call it is some of the worst I have ever seen, especially where Win is trying to cry it made me giggle thats how bad he is. I can't see anyone wanting this pile of rubbish on their CV. Avoid at all costs its just not worth your time.

Andie MacDowell is running for governor of Massachusetts! She asks a detective to revitalize a 35 year old unsolved case from Tennessee to show the latest techniques that can be used with technology to solve crimes. Trouble is that she opens a can of worms here and the bodies and the cover-ups really do begin to pile up.Our male hero could certainly be used to star in a biography of the life of President Obama or even former Tennessee Representative Harold Ford. He looks like a cross between the both of them.Everything fits neatly by the film's end, but it may be just too neat.Diahann Carroll appears as the grandmother to the Obama-Ford look alike. There is one scene with a pack of dogs that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.MacDowell, as a D.A. attempting to be the governor, shows that women are at a disadvantage when they run for political office. Perhaps, they should have called in Hillary Clinton as a technical adviser.
