Schuldig - Ein mörderischer Auftrag

At first, I didn't think this would be a really good movie at all because I've never heard of it before, I only found out about it from a friend. But when you start to watch it, you get right into the storyline & you don't want to turn away from it for a second. There's lots of plot twists & the actors are great. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes a good "thriller".

A very entertaining thriller. The screenplay is full of twists and coincidences which would appear shamefully incredible in other hands, but here the whole cobweb is managed cleverly and for moments we seem to be in front of a real Greek tragedy. Waller builds some great moments of tension that keep you in the edge of your sit.Bill Pullman is superb as the mean, tricky lawyer. Worth seeing.

and all things considered means that if you throw 6-7 idiotic characters in the movie and you have any kind of plot (someone said even a twist), you will get OK rental movie.

everyone in this movie does exactly opposite of what would make sense.

This one was very good about a corrupt lawyer-turned-judge(Bill Pullman) who is blackmailed for rape by his secretary and his son, Nathan, whom he doesn't even know(Devon Sawa) who returns from serving a bid for grand theft auto and is paid off by his father to kill the woman who is blackmailing him - Nathan hates his step-father but then finds out that his true father is the scum-bag that he should be hating. Bill Pullman does great as the self-centered and dishonest Crane - I hated him as the movie went on, and Devon Sawa gives a great depiction of Nathan, his ex-convict son who seeks him out to find out who he is. Wonderfully scripted about fate coming back to haunt you when you don't cover your own tracks. Character development in this doesn't go on unnoticed

It is funny how much Pullman and Sawa resemble each other, and that Pullman's character seems to feel it when they first meet. However...

Plot wise, it's a trash fire, but there is very solid acting here, and the directing may not quite be memorable, but it also is solid enough to make this a picture worth watching.

But it does require truly monumental stupidity for some of the "twists" to occur.
