movie review - A Time To Kill

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 1997.01.20

You know how some movies are made around the leading cast, and they tack on a story of some kind and then half-ass it? This is one of those, with Sandra Bullock, Samuel Jackson, and Matthew McConnaughy. I couldn't watch: I had the plot figured from fifteen minutes in.

Not recommended.

Respect your efforts, respect yourself. Self-respect leads to self-discipline. When you have both firmly under your belt, that's real power.
