Title: THE CRIME IS THE MOVIE
Review: What a shame..with an intriguing premise and some weird acting and photography, AMERICAN CRIME could have been a neat little thriller. Alas, by the time the scriptwriters get done with its incohesive plot twists and lack of a good ending, the movie has sunk to the rest of the doomed to the bargain bin collections. Suffice to say, you can hardly recognize Cary Elwes in his make up in the role of Albert Bodine, host of "American Crime." Rachael Leigh Cook, Kip Pardue and Annabella Sciorra all deserve better roles than the writers end up giving them. The movie starts off like its one of those true crime series but midways into the movie, we find out...well, I won't spoil it, but it makes little if any sense. Rent if desperate, but you can do better.
