Entertaining and good overall. The problem is that it has many errors.

The predictable, formulaic thriller from the 1990s--which Ashley Judd often took part in. Tommy Lee Jones is easily forgettable in this role. Ultimately, Double Jeopardy features interesting potential that is not reached.

As an in-depth, sophisticated thriller, Double Jeopardy fails to meet the terms. As implausible, fun entertainment, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better movie for the time being.

It not will change your life but it's a very pleasant entertainment. I guess that the critics are in other planet when they criticize the movie. Many times, in Metacritic, when critics hate a movie and the public likes it, it attracts me.
The movie title is concerning a real question in USA. You cannot be blamed twice by the same crime.… Expand

The law of double jeopardy states that once a person is convicted or acquitted of a crime, they may not be tried for the same crime again.

So, when Libby Parsons (Ashley Judd), discovers that the husband she's been convicted of killing is actually still alive, she goes on a mission to hunt him down. There is one problem though, her parole officer is determined to stop her. This is one of those films that for some reason you easily forget about. I saw Double Jeopardy when it was in the theaters and totally forgot about it, until it was on TV last week. It's only then that I remembered just how intense it is. Ashley Judd is truly a fantastic actress when she's in the right role, and trust me, a scored, lonely woman is the perfect role for her. Tommy Lee Jones has a somewhat smaller part than we are used too, but he's as amazing as he's always been. The chase for Libby easily brings back memories of Marshall Samuel Gerard. The only knock against this film is that it is unfortunately somewhat predictable, if you're looking for a shocking twist in the story, you won't find it here. The extreme nature of the story and the terrific acting more than make up for the predictability though and the film is perfect for those times where you just want to be entertained without having to think too much.… Expand

A great thriller that, unlike so many thrillers, actually makes logical sense from start to finish. Great plot and strong performances all around. Highly recommended.

Pretty good movie. I wouldn't want to do time for a murder I didn't commit. If I was set up like this movie, I'd probably do the same thing she did.

Yeah, this is an unremarkable thriller with unremarkable characters (lived up by a gorgeous cast). But this is what a professional cinema critic would call: "Undeniable Thriller".
