The Judgement
13 February 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Only I know for how long I've been looking for this picture; considering it's a low budget production, I spent more than a year looking everywhere that could give me clues about how to get it on DVD or any similar, and I finally found it for sale. "The Confession" is a movie that sometimes has the vibe of the courtroom dramas mixed with political conspiracies, delivering something like 1996's "A Time To Kill" and "Primal Fear", among others. I have to mention that the plot is really slow-paced, and for those who prefer movies not that extended, "The Confession" just won't fit. For times I felt like turning it off, given that I couldn't see such surprising outcome it has, and boy, that was just a great twist! Sadly, this film doesn't deserve a better rating due to its extended running time, and maybe because of the weak portrayal of a judge, coming from Anne Twomey-- by the way, why did they change the judges throughout the lawsuit? When I think about the movie's flaws, the photography direction also isn't anything inspiring to see. I can't say if it's good or bad. However, if you are a forbearing watcher that enjoy elaborated pictures, this may be a good choice. This is a regular work that could've been much more recognized than it currently is, and I don't understand why it's so little known.
