Anthony Hopkins IS the reason to watch this movie. He is simply at his manipulative best. The story is taut and keeps moving with enough twists and turns to keep you engaged. But make no mistake, Hopkins IS this movie.... Full review

They just had to have their feel good (bad guy loses, good guy wins) ending. What a cop-out. Jeez, I don't even consider the prosecuter a good guy...self-centered, egotistical, "I Win!! I Win!!" piece of #$%&^. He's easier to consider one... Full review

Fracture looks beautiful with all its low-lighting and gritty style.....the scenes have played out, Fracture remains a light and enjoyable legal film....The final nail in the coffin of Fracture 's attempt to revitalize the dramatic legal film is the ending.....It's the drawn out moments which take Fracture from a compelling legal drama to a ho-hum courtroom venture.....even they can't undo the damage of the extra 20 minutes thrown in to demonstrate the cat and mouse concept every legal film thrills with.... ...

And Gosling makes Willy so thoroughly haughty and overbearing....Understand, Hopkins makes his character Crawford so diabolically clever and charming....Hopkins' character is truly bad.....We can always depend upon Hopkins to turn in a stellar performance.... ... Full Review

The talented Cliff Curtis does his best with his bland role....Indeed, the scenes they share with each other are notably stronger than those with the rest of the fairly weak supporting cast (David Straithairn notwithstanding, of course).....As soon as they put these two in a room together, the movie really starts--their initial shared scene (Hopkins' arraignment) is sharp, witty, sly, and perfectly played.....Billy Burke is dull as toast in the key male supporting role....Watching his studied, precise, stri ...
