Judicial Consent (1995) User Reviews

Two movies in one. But well worth the watch.

[MuggySphere · 6/10 · 11 February 2003]

Somewhat of an interesting movie in that it starts out being very hot and steamy and then progresses to be a good court room drama.

That's why I said you get two movies for one in this film. The way it plays out I don't think the film was sure which way it wanted to go at first but the second half of the film is definitely worth staying for.

Exciting movie, disappointing end.

The movie starts with this Judge 'Gwen Warwick' having an affair, which sometimes looked more like 91/2 weeks (nice erotic scene's bytheway). Then it turned into a justice-law kind of movie when she had to be JUDGE in a case where she knew that the suspect was unguilty because every evidence she saw (e.g. her pants) were pointing towards herself. Then there was the big surprise about WHO was the real killer? Only the end could have been much better... nevertheless, a nice movie to watch on a saturday evening with your girlfriend (majoring in law?) on the couch.

Very interesting courtroom thriller from writr/director William Bindley. Bedelia delivers a pretty good performance as Judge Gwen Warwick, a woman estranged from her husband and not at all satisfied in her life. She strikes up a pretty hot affair with a younger clerk (Billy Wirth) and soon finds her life in danger, especially when one of her colleagues was murdered and the evidence points to her. Aside from some needlessly steamy sex scenes, this film is worth checking out. Dabney Coleman is alway a welcome prescence as well. 7/10.
