    • Trivia
      The kinetic objects, with the rolling glass marbles, are designs of Dutch artist Mark Bischof.
    • Goofs
      By the expert's testimony in court we are informed that Ted Crawford's bullet pierced through the frontal cortex in the temporal lobe coming to rest upon the upper side of the brain against the skull. Yet when we see wife Jennifer's head hit the floor for a brief moment in a close-up, there is no injury visible at all. Furthermore in another scene Ted points to his left cheek bone when he describes where he shot his wife. Such an injury is very different from that described during the trial. The shot was fired at close range with a powerful .45, which makes it very unlikely that the bullet would come to rest within the skull.

    • Crazy credits
      The opening credits, rather than merely superimposed on the background, cast shadows and have reflections as if they exist in the scene.

    complex and involving

    The film gets to deliver high points of drama and confrontation and is overall fairly watchable; there are some cliché the director could do without but the good storyline gets them to fit together. Twists and turns guarantee enough suspense in this piece of jigsaw solving, plus there are some elements of a legal thriller, that make the plot a little bit more complex. Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling are really excellent but the whole cast seems to work properly, both in terms of involvement and rhythm. It's a cut above average thrillers and above stories based upon novels or famous trials, thank to the cast and the screenplay.
