Rebecca De Mornay is so beautiful in Guilty as Sin. She's got beautiful blonde hair and bright blue eyes and a killer body. I love her. Guilty as Sin is a true testimony to Miss De Mornay and her beauty, with a Don Johnson. Talky, talky, talky, when is sweet Rebecca going to show me her personal dockets so I can cross-examine her? I love this even though it's kind of boring. It has its redeeming moments. An exhilarating De Mornay exhibit, indeed!

Don Johnson really gets to show his stuff impressively playing accused wife murderer David Greenhill. He is vicious, manipulative, conniving and as such, would make a terrific TROLLing poster on the message boards. He is totally without morality, truthfulness or empathy. He is a psychopath BUT he is man-pretty and charming and the women he cons just love him.Rebecca DeMornay is the lawyer who gets conned and then legally forced into defending this indefensible person. The always interesting Jack Warden is her friend private detective Moe. All of the actors are good at their jobs despite a few major plot holes. The story itself is pretty labyrinthine but it can be followed. The ending is satisfying even though unbelievable.The best part is watching the workings of a truly psychopathic mind at work. It may leave you shaken if you know there really are such people out there !

I distinctly remember going to see this in the cinema with a group of friends. I did not want to watch this as I knew it had got bad reviews but they won the vote so I had to go with them.I also remember leaving the cinema after it ended almost in tears having realised that Sidney Lumet was reduced to directing this garbage. If I had a mobile phone in those days I would had probably called the Samaritans in the middle of the film.Rebecca De Mornay plays a hot shot, win at all costs criminal defence lawyer who likes to win even for the most unlikeable and presumably guilty clients.Don Johnson is the latest slimy client who wants her to defend him for killing his rich wife. Johnson is a ladies man with an unsavoury past and De Mornay doubts him and may have put herself in danger.The film is rubbish. Lumet must have gone to Las Vegas and lost big in the casinos or a family member was ill and he needed to pay huge medical bills and therefore he needed money very badly. This is one of the best directors not to have won a Directing Oscar and you can never get over the realisation that a great talent is behind this film.This movie is badly written, badly acted, badly made. Its actually tortuous viewing.

Don Johnson is...guilty of sin. Some people have already been offended by my critique of "Guilty as Sin"(1993) and a few others might disagree, with my take on big daddy Don as an over privileged man(murderer). But millions will agree, due to the lack of big ticket sales. The funny part is, that I really have enjoyed many of his performances. This is not as if I'm just looking to sort of stall out on a movie he did because I don't like him. Stephen Lang, is in the cast as well and he really is one heck of a versatile character actor, Sydney (the Director) should have switched the two actors roles....Johnson's David Greenhill, was a smart-Alec twerp of a womanizer. Sitting at that bar telling that woman she could pay for his drink and that "Women take care of me." was one of the most ridiculously delivered lines I have heard. He, for me didn't come off as a suave lady killer, he came across as a man that you would like to take out to an alleyway and beat the socks off of em'. It was quite a spectacle the way that David dressed in black and a stocking cap and met the lawyer in the parking garage and beat him and his car phone to bits! That was a solid action / drama piece in the story that segue-way-ed nicely into the next place...Don has been in quite a few really 'great' roles, in which he was the only one that you could see there. It would be a crime to put in a different actor, they never would have filled his shoes. But, not here. On the out, the ending in this was 'pure' Hollywood in bad scripted form. Falling off the ledge on top of him, as she makes it out, alive and he dies. Sure. That's just one of the reasons (of many) why I gave this a 5/10 .
