TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
Orla Zuniga It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Boba_Fett1138 No well, this is not one of the worst movies you'll ever see but it simply isn't great stuff either and certainly not worthy of all the praise it is receiving on here. People actually rate this movie a 10, 9 or an 8? Some people really should start watching some more movies.In the first halve of the movie the main character is trying to cope with- and tries to life and use her abilities to read people's minds. This means that the first halve of the movie mostly consists out of drama. Then suddenly the movie completely changes and turns into a fast going action/thriller in which the main character must prevent a terrorist attack. It then also introduces the movie its second main character Brendan Dean (Joe Flanigan). Much too late of course. It all perhaps could had worked out if the first halve of the movie was trimmed down to a 15 minutes intro in which the main character tries to control her powers. It now instead is a movie with very messy story-telling, with two total different halves that just don't really connect with each other. But also the rest of the movie simply is an example of how not to tell a story. It's extremely messy, leaves lots of loose ends (it simply doesn't bother to explain things at times), steals ideas from other movies and on top of it all features an highly unlikely story that progresses in a even more unlikely manner.It's obvious that this is a movie that was orientated toward the DVD market. It therefor is a rather cheap looking simplistic B-movie, that only mildly entertains, which prevents this movie from being a completely unwatchable one. The action is minimal and mostly consists out of running and jumping people. Too often too little interesting is happening in the movie.It's pretty obvious that director Breck Eisner got inspired by the two Matrix-sequels that were released around the same time. This is most notable in the way he handles the action, with a pretty laughable end result at times.Elements of this movie all got handled better in way better movies.5/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
kirsten smith I didn't realise that this was a movie! I watched it on Ten HD about a week ago thinking it was the premiere to a new television show. I was so excited because when I watched this I thought it would be an awesome TV series. They could really develop the relationships between all the characters- in particular the mains. And it would be really interesting seeing how they'd tackle the cases given to them. It was very entertaining! But,to me, now knowing that there will be no more follow up showings, it seems that not much was really resolved. It's such a shame that there won't be a continuation from it. Because I really hoped there would be!
Martin This is one of those movies no one's ever heard of, but when you see you're like "wow". I admit the plot doesn't sound very original in fact it's not original but once you start seeing it, you can't stop this movie would've been great for a TV show. Navi Rawat brilliantly performs the role of Freya McAllister, it was the first time I saw Navi Rawat acting in a movie but you can easily tell, she's made for the big screen. Joe Flanigan was not bad either, it was the first time I saw his act and he wasn't bad, but he wouldn't have been my choice for Brendan.As I said before the show really should've been a TV series because it leaves us wondering a lot of things. Anyway, if you like a soft entertaining action/drama movie this movie is for you. I rate it 9/10
Claudio Carvalho In 1994, in her high school prom, Freya McAllister (Navi Rawat) starts to hear voices in her head, is declared schizophrenic and sent to a mental institution. She is treated by Dr. Michael Welles (Peter Horton), who is sponsored by the National Security Agency (NSA), and along the treatment, he tells her that she in not crazy, but indeed she has powerful telepathic skills, being unique in the world. Nine years later, she is assigned by NSA to work with agent Brendan Dean (Joe Flanigan) in New York, chasing together the dangerous terrorist Cazal, whose identity is unknown by the secret service.What a great surprise this excellent movie was for me! Yesterday, when I decided to watch "Thoughtcrimes", I was expecting a common movie just for killing time. However, the intriguing story hooked my attention until its very end. The beginning of the film is a sort of "Nikita" or "Firestarter", but the story works very well. Navi Rawat and Joe Flanigan show excellent chemistry, the characters are very well developed, the screenplay has no flaws and certainly is an attractive entertainment for fans of action movies. My vote is eight.Title (Brazil): "Crimes Premeditados" ("Premeditated Crimes")
