Totally illogical plot, 26 April 2003
Author: Heinz57 from Colorado Springs

Though the acting is first rate, to be expected from a first class cast, the logic used is so badly flawed, it severely impacted the enjoyment of this movie for me. The only thing uncertain is, whether the writer simply has never heard of, much less understands, logic, or whether he used this as a gimmick to muddy the waters to the point where no one would be able to predict the outcome, BECAUSE of the extensive use of illogic. I would give it at most 2 stars of five, and that high only because I really like Morgan Freeman and Ashley Judd (not necessarily in this order ;-) ) (Why did they agree to make such a non sequitur dreck?)
