Genre: Suspense Rating: R Release Date: 12-DEC-2003 Media Type: DVD Amazon.com: Clever twists and a bona fide surprise ending make this an above-average courtroom thriller, tapping into the post-O.J. scrutiny of our legal system in the case of a hotshot Chicago defense attorney (Richard Gere) whose latest client is an altar boy (Edward Norton) accused of murdering a Catholic archbishop. The film uses its own manipulation to tell a story about manipulation, and when we finally discover who's been pulling the strings, the payoff is both convincing and pertinent to the ongoing debate over what constitutes truth in the American system of justice. Making an impressive screen debut that has since led to a stellar career, Norton gives a performance that rides on a razor's edge of schizophrenic pathology--his role is an actor's showcase, and without crossing over the line of credibility, Norton milks it for all it's worth. Gere is equally effective in a role that capitalizes on his shifty screen persona, and Laura Linney and Frances McDormand give memorable performances in their intelligently written supporting roles. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Good moviePrimal Fear is a really good movie, it was full of suspence, and the ending you would never see coming. Rating: - Nicely constructed thriller that serves up the goods...The worst thing I can say about `Primal Fear' is that it plays out like an extended episode of `Law & Order'; but that being the worst of it is really not so bad. I actually enjoy a good episode of `Law & Order', and beings that this follows the `SVU' pattern of process (which happens to be my favorite variation of the `Law & Order' franchise) I am really quite impressed with this film. It isn't perfect, and there are a few plot holes that take away from the films credibility, but it ...

Second - the plot is fantastic and that is the correct word but you have to see it right to the very end to understand why. If you haven't seen it, buy it, rent it, borrow it, steal it, but don't miss it. Rating: - Great movie; great transactionWonderful, quick and easy transaction. Quality product received in perfect condition, and very quickly. I'm totally satisfied with this transaction and would not hesitate to buy from this seller again. Rating: - Wonderfully Tense with Great PerformancesThis is one of the best "lawyer" movies you'll ever see with fabulous performances by Richard Gere, Laura Linney, Frances McDormand and an absolutely Academy Award level performance by Edward Norton.
