Kodie Bird True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Chase_Witherspoon Meandering tale of a wealthy family embroiled in a murder scandal with hot shot reporter Stoltz becoming enamoured by the sultry, enigmatic daughter (Connelly) in his obsessive pursuit of landing the big scoop to feed his ambitions of fame and fortune. Tries for a film noir feel, but doesn't make the grade wasting a whole lot of talent in the process. Most of star-billed Hopper's role is seen in flashbacks, whilst fellow veterans Price and Dillman have only relatively small contributions to a rather muddled mystery. I preferred the Stoltz-Connelly mind games that were maturing, alas they were overtaken midway by Mulroney's bizarre social handicap whose delusional behaviour becomes progressively more paranoid as the climax approaches.But despite the potential, the movie is really no more than a feature-length episode of a Murder She Wrote or similar whodunit, with too much telegraphed and consequently, very few surprises to entertain any armchair sleuth who might be hoping for something more mysterious.

leplatypus I saw this movie with no subtitles so it's usually prevent me to connect except if the movie is exceptional which isn't the case here ! It's about a reporter who investigates a crime for which the killer has been found because he killed himself after the assassination! For that meaningless job, he stalks his wealthy family and meets Jen who will use her charm to disrupt it ! For that, she dresses with expensive wardrobe and shows some skin. Well, if you find some interest here, good for you because because I find that story totally flat and uninteresting ! Worst, added to Jen, the cast is well loaded with Mr. Price, Macy but the movie just stalls right from the start with this awful script that leads anywhere!

AZINDN Ambition, incest, murder, and jealousy are themes of *Heart of Justice*. Eric Stoltz is an ambitious and cocky reporter who meets Emma, (Jennifer Connelly) the reticent and mysterious sister of loose cannon, Dermott Mulroney, who attempts to hide the skeleton in his family's prestigious upper Eastside society closet. Outraged over the none to subtle hints at his family's honor by Capotesque- author, Dennis Hopper, Mulroney is driven to his limits by the printed innuendos and thinly veiled hints of family debauchery, madness, and lust. Deeper mysteries arise as Stoltz, a reporter with a yen for a hot tip succumbs to the considerable physical charms of Connelly, and as his professional objectivity is swept under the sheets with Emma, the mystery surrounding her relationships, both familial and sexual, peak. When Bill Macy, Stoltz's competitor, joins the Emma fan club, the story leaves the audience with little left to imagine.Performances by a stellar cast moves the story from complex to strange with enjoyable villains, Hopper and Mulroney stealing scenes from each other. Stoltz and Connelly are hot and heavy, but Connelly and Mulroney are the hottest. David Mamet kudos.

Robert J. Maxwell This is a dark and moody movie that has a couple of things going for it and one big weakness. The things going for it include the acting. Everyone is at least pretty good, down to the smallest parts. Dermot Mulroney is often an unbelievable pain in the neck but here, as a murderously paranoid schizophrenic, his wooden wariness and immobile face are convincing. Dennis Hopper, as Truman Capote or Dominick Dunne or somebody, has a relatively small part, but he has become a reliable and always interesting supporting actor, now that he has survived the 1960s. Eric Stoltz looks the part, red haired and pale, and quick in his movements and in this particular role his voice, which is sometimes a hindrance to our suspension of disbelief, hints at an underlying weakness of character that plays to advantage. Brad Dillman, as the head of the terribly rich and rather warped family, is also quite good, almost unrecognizable as the same guy who was a homosexual genius in "Compulsion." Best of all is Jennifer Connelly as the mysterious sister of Mulroney. She always wears black, right down to her skivvies. Okay, she has the voice and intonations of a high school girl -- but what a high school girl! The voice is always semi-breathless and as deliberate and slow as her most molecular movements or her most molar for that matter. It isn't clear from the film that she was sexually involved with her brother but they were surely bonded. What a delight to look at. Oh -- the big weakness. Alright. As they say, "Even paranoids have enemies." And in this case, Mulroney's beliefs about Dennis Hopper's writing a scandalous number on the family were evidently correct. Hopper was collecting secret information in the form of gossip and so forth. Stoltz is a successful reporter who begins nosing into the case and finding that, yes, maybe Mulroney was right. But where was Hopper getting his dish from? Jennifer Connelly confesses that it was she who was Hopper's informant. She seduces Stoltz and more or less coerces him into destroying all of his evidence about the case. Having succeeded in quashing the story Stoltz was pursuing, she abandons Stoltz. The holes in the reasoning gape before us. If she wanted the true story quashed, why did she inform on the family in the first place? The question undermines the entire plot. Almost as bad: Stoltz has quit his job at the paper, and the job has been taken over by Macy. In the last scene, she taunts Macy by revealing her half-naked body to him from a soft-pornly curtained window, and Macy moves toward the building with an expression of what is presumably supposed to be deep desire. Da spider iss spinnink her wep fawh anodder unvary fly! But -- WHY? The scandalous story is now kaput. She should have no interest in Stoltz's replacement at the paper, nor he in her -- he knows practically nothing about Stoltz' work. The performances and the moody atmosphere are enough to carry this film over the abbysal gaps in the plot, but they provide pretty shaky support.
