Final Verdict

Another faux US movie made by Canadians with a ridiculous plotline. But good acting by the female lead. Always a token African-Canadian cop who dies - Usually the only Afro-Canadian in the movie. Can't they find more than one Afro-Canadian and actually give them a serious role?

Where do they sell this ridiculous-formula stuff? Was this made for US TV? US TV or Canadian TV? Aren't Canadian TV viewers hoping for something actually set in and portraying Canada? Or do they even see this drivel in Canada?

The real 'Final Verdict', based on Adela Rogers St. John about her father Earl Rogers was a little better - with Treat Williams and Glenn Ford made in 1992 and an American movie about Americans filmed in the United States.

This stuff litters amazon and tubi because it costs so little. Are these actors making minimum wage?

Erica Durance in Final Verdict, What is not to love? She can get inside the script and character of the role she plays and do it well. For every negative opinion out there from people that could not even successfully complete a high school drama course, there are 99 more who love you Erica Durance.

I have to watch Final Verdict on LMN again because I missed part of it. But I did catch the love scene and would like to contact Steve Beyers and ask him what is it like?! I can't stand it! Sweet dreams........Its All FINE ALRIGHT.

Portraying the role of a Lawyer is not exactly the same as the role of driving a bus wired with explosives and you can't go slower than 50mph! Has anyone out there ever paid close attention to their attorney? They can be pretty dry and boring with all their legalese, and your usually relieved you only had a 20 minute appointment.

Any one casting their self proclaimed legendary opinion as negative toward this film and the characters scripted, seem to have forgotten one important fact in all their complaining...... ITS A SCRIPT!! .. AND THE CHARACTERS WERE PORTEAYED JUST AS THEY WERE INTENDED.

I enjoyed this movie and will finish what I missed taking in the first time around. Thank you Lifetime Movie Network

Oh dear, here we go again, yet another movie shot in Canada by Canadians, subsidized by Canadian taxpayers, produced for Canadian television. Yet the damn thing is set in the USA with US cops, US district attorneys, US judges... Doesn't anybody up here have THE GUTS to do a movie like this set in Canada????? The Canadian film industry will always be THIRD RATE so long as it panders this way to the US market. Appalling!!! Having vented on this subject, as I do regularly, it was not a bad film. Reasonably well shot. Competently acted. Decently written (although the plot gets a little confusing towards the end.) I would have given it a 7 but knocked it down to 4 because of the craven cinematic colonialism.

Movie shot on video says enough. Low budget and predictable to the very end. Waste of time.

Bad acting, bad plot, bad writing, bad music/score. The dialogue is so unrealistic it's painful; people just do not talk like that. At one point the main character, when she's by herself, says out loud "Oh Meg, what are you doing?"

There isn't any chemistry between any of the characters, not even the characters who are supposed to be romantically involved. Kissing is over-mic'd which is utterly unpleasant.

There doesn't seem to be any logic behind many of the characters' decisions.

Overall, it's melodramatic and cheesy. I don't know what I expected from a TV movie, but it's just so bad. The only reason I haven't turned it off is because I'm determined to finish every movie I start.
