Double Jeopardy

1999

Directed by Bruce Beresford

Murder isn't always a crime.

Framed for the murder of her husband, Libby Parsons survives the long years in prison with two burning desires sustaining her -- finding her son and solving the mystery that destroyed her once-happy life. Standing between her and her quest; however, is her parole officer, Travis Lehman. Libby poses a challenge to the cynical officer, one that forces him to face up to his own failings while pitting him against his superiors and law enforcement colleagues.

Review by Dan D. ★★½ 25

Pretty sure this isn't how the double jeopardy clause works.
And if it did, I'm sure the courts would be more than happy to convict Ashley Judd's character of the following crimes:
Parole violation
Breaking and entering
Resisting arrest
Assault
Unlawful possession of a firearm
Hit and run
Identity theft
This is a dumb movie.
Still, it's fun to see Jones play a variation on his Agent Gerard character from The Fugitive, and Ashley Judd is a likable protagonist.
This movie is really dumb, though.
Review by Bethany ★★★★★ 1

fuck that piece of shit Weinstein for ruining Ashley Judd's career. she is such an fantastic actress and such a force on screen no matter what she's doing or who she's working with (she's so great with Tommy Lee Jones in this)—thinking about all of the art she could have made and the opportunities she could have taken had she not been fucked over so badly makes me so incredibly sad for her.
cheesy 90s thrillers are my absolute favorite and my mum has always recommended this one to me, so there's no surprise that I loved it :-) I wish they still made films like this!
Review by scoobert doo (aka mo) ★★★

‪the biggest twist of this movie??? finding out there's a pro when it comes to having a husband.... apparently if you get convicted for killing him, most guys find that unattractive & will leave you alone‬

If Tommy Lee Jones is chasing you, you're probably innocent.

They don’t make movies like this anymore
Review by Peter Raleigh ★★★

Look this is an extremely stupid movie but 90s studio thrillers are my kryptonite.

Review by kayla🐈 ★★★★

imagine having miss judd as your wife and disrespecting her like that sorry nick you get what you deserve hun
Review by Juliekate ★★★★ 1

an alternate tagline: juddstice was served
Review by ChandraKanth❄ ★★

I expected a Kill Bill kind of revenge and I am doubly disappointed.
It has no emotional depth and logic.
Review by Will Menaker ★★★ 5

In this movie Ashley Judd is framed for the murder of her husband and convicted, but only does 6 years in prison???
