8/28/2023 0 Comments Shadow of doubt 1998 watch onlineThis throws the entire case into limbo for the overconfident D.A, Kitt's ex-husband, Jack Campioni, Tom Berenger, who's representing the state. An open and shut case at first Madena gets top defense attorney Kitt Devereux, Malanie Griffith,to defend him. When Jana Calloway,Sandra Guibord, is found brutally murdered in her outdoor gazebo all the evidence points to up and coming rap singer Bobby Madena, Wade Dominguez, a former drug dealer who was last seen with her at a local L.A night club. **SPOILER ALERT** Over-plotted and confusing crime conspiracy flick about the rich famous and infamous involved in a presidential campaign that's connected to the death of a major political contributers wild suicidal and drug addicted daughter. One could do better or they could do worse. People who dig predictable legal thrillers may like this and people who are not Griffith fans or who like their movies with more complexity and suspense may not. I'd neither recommend this or not recommend it. The direction I must mention because it was excellent and easily the best aspect of the movie. It's a decent watch as a late night B movie but probably could have been better If there had been more of an effort to make the movie feel less contrived and if more originality had been added to the picture as a whole. There is also a seaminess about the movie and a "late night" feel that one cannot get away from. The revelation of the murderers was done well and I honestly did not expect almost everyone to be involved but it wasn't a shocker either. So the lack of complexity and the fast moving story line gives the audience a watchable but not spectacular movie. There wasn't a heck of a lot to work with. Melodie Griffith stars as the defense attorney and I guess one's enjoyment of the movie will depend on how big a fan one is of Griffith because it seems like she is in almost every scene and though I had a difficult time buying her as a lawyer I did not think she was awful. One always knows exactly where this movie is going and it never fails to go there. The movie also moves Quite quickly and there are not many surprises. The main problems are the lack of believability through the whole movie as well as the predictable story line. I'd rate this neither as excellent or dreadful. Basically, this is a legal "who done it" and it's pretty predictable all around but the plot, though unoriginal, is engrossing and keeps one watching. It's not a great picture but it's watchable. SPOILERS THROUGH: I didn't think this was to bad.
