This started out as a run-of-the-mill courtroom drama (and I love a courtroom drama).
It seemed so obvious to me that the mother had commited the murder and the son was taking the blame to protect her. Then the twists and turns started and - good lord - it was Neo all along.
This elevated the story for me and gave a decent twist ending. Not entirely sure why the son would take the blame though if he knew that Neo was the killer all along ... but we'll skip that minor plot hole.
Renee was pretty unrecognizable, I thought ... not sure why. And Keannu was decent in his role. Still with the slightly stunted ESL delivery that is his schtick but that was ok.
Al in all a pretty solid film with good performances and a decent twist at the end.
73/100.
