True Crime (1999)

[6]

Clint Eastwood tackles one of the most hackneyed of all movie subgenres, the race-the-clock death row rescue thriller, and breathes at least enough life into it to keep you engaged. Isaiah Washington puts in a good performance as the innocent man sentenced to die. His scenes with his wife (Lisa Gay Hamilton) and daughter are the movie’s best. The cast also features Denis Leary, James Woods, Diane Venora, Michael McKean, Michael Jeter, Lucy Liu, and Titanic costars Bernard Hill and Frances Fisher.
