Fracture review by DG
Taught thriller
(5) of (7) members found this review helpful.
Had a look at the cinema listings with my wife, she didn't want to watch Spidey 3 I didn't want to watch a Nazi war film-The Life Of Others.So we decided to go and watch fracture.Hadn't read to much about it, had heard some positive reviews so decided to give it a go.
Anthony hopkins is always good value and a movie with him in is always worth a watch.Don't know the co star(Ryan Gosling), Should I ?
Without giving to much away the plot involves Mr hopkins Murdering his own wife, admitting to it, giving a written statement and basically putting his hands up and saying, it was me.Well obviously its not that simple.Ryan Gosling plays a hotshot lawyer who is just on the verge of promotion, decides to take one last job an easy "Murder with confession".
Herein lies the beauty of this film, the plot twists and turns from conception to completion and you never really know whats going to happen.The time never dragged whilst watching this film it totally ronsealed me and i left the cinema feeling totally satisfied.The only thing that bugged me was, why does a medium popcorn small drink and a bag of penny sweets cost over £8.What gives!!!

Fracture review by JD
Fantastic plot but desperately disappointing acting

Where was Hopkins? Is this a retirement booster? I have never seen such a poor performance. The rest of the actors fill the usual hero falls in love with girl background rubbish that you expect. None of the acting was interesting. I hope the plot is used again as there are lots of twists.

Fracture review by Rob S
Excellent Crime Thriller
(1) of (1) members found this review helpful.
This is an excelent thriller and I don't think it really matters if you work out (which is likely and exactly what we did) how Hopkins did it. It doesn't spoil the film as you're then intriged as to how he is going to get caught.
It's not a classic, but as the above reviewer said - it's a Ronseal!
Recommended.
