Reversible Errors (2004 TV Movie)
8/10
Overlong but still worth it for thriller fans
24 July 2023
I have been curious for years about REVERSIBLE ERRORS because it stars both William Macy and James Rebhorn (a supporting actor that while he has never been a recognizable name he has certainly a recognizable face and voice). Last May I finally saw it and it was up to my expectations.

When the story begins a woman and two men are killed in a bar and Detective Larry Starczek (Tom Selleck) is in charge of the investigations. Soon small-time theif Squirrel (Glenn Plummer) is seen as the main suspect. Larry arrests him and after the trial Squirrel is sent to prison and ready to be executed. Then the movie moves seven years later when there is new evidence and nobody is sure that Squirrel is the culprit and the judge wasn't exactly clean. Arthur Raven (Macy) will investigate and make the truth come out, and Squirrel will be free again.

Despite its very long running time of 2 hours and 53 minutes (and according to the IMDB trivia it was first aired on CBS in two parts) it's still a great made for TV thriller that has lots of surprises and unexpected twists that are bound to make you extremely satisfied by the end. The acting was great by all, and it doesn't even feel the typical TV movie look.

If you stumble upon it during a Youtube search or remember it being aired for the first time back in 2004, don't miss it for all the aforementioned reasons.
