7/10
Thriller. Pay back is hell. Determination wins over all.
23 April 2000
Warning: Spoilers
Nick Parsons, played by Bruce Greenwood, wants to protect his ill gotten wealth; so he fakes his own demise. His wife, Libby, played by Ashley Judd, is convicted of murder. While in prison, Libby finds out that her husband is still alive and has taken her son to New Orleans and is living under an assumed name.

Upon release, Mrs. Parsons breaks parole in order to get her son back. One other thing, she realizes she can kill her husband for real and not suffer the consequences. Tommy Lee Jones plays the parole officer trying to bring her back to custody. He ends up helping Libby.

Miss Judd is very beautiful and is probably on screen 97% of the movie. No objection here. Jones was outstanding. This action thriller is worth seeing more than once.
