A Daughter's Conviction (2006 TV Movie)
5/10
average but new story line
7 July 2007
Recently graduated college age daughter comes home to Seattle after a long period of time to find a surprise and not a happy one at that. The rest of the movie is about learning the details of that happening. What is most interesting is the way in which the happening is replayed with different people. I suppose that isn't an original style but I still found it to be a unique replay of events and added to the story. Kate Jackson somehow looks different. I guess she's aged. Somehow we want our icons to always look the way they did when they were younger. One of the above comments mentioned the leading actor, but I have never heard of her or seen her before.

One Way Out (2002 Video)
6/10
mediocre but enjoyable thriller
24 June 2006
Convoluted thriller with comedy star and beautiful female police officer reminiscent of another female who I can't remember her name is not up for any academy awards. Despite the lack of reviews found anywhere, I found it to be an entertaining and intriguing film showing the trouble a human weakness can get you into. I've never seen a film where the protagonist is being taken down and yet not guilty due to self defense. You don't know all this til the end when you finally come to realize the truth of the killing. For me, I was surprised on how it all ended and enjoyed the journey to finding it out. The ending was disappointing as usually the main character lives to tell the tale, and goes on with his life. After all this is a movie, and happy endings are still in vogue.
