There's something heartening about a film that aspires to do nothing but entertain -- and does.

Entertainment made well enough that you can overlook its absurdities.

A solo "Thelma and Louise" crossed with a gender-reversed "The Fugitive" with a dry twist of "Fletch."

Loaded down with credibility problems.

Not a successful thriller, but with some nice dramatic scenes along with the dumb mystery and contrived conclusion.

There are a few ingenious zig zags in its otherwise by-the-numbers plot...but what keeps you interested... is the sheer movie-star presence of the actors in the lead roles.

Judd is pretty much on her own - an assignment she mostly can handle with aplomb.

Jones' pursuit of Judd follows the tried-but-true plotline of winding cat-and-mouse chases that lead to big climaxes.

A generally dumb movie with a smart, appealing, gutsy leading lady.

On a simplistic level, the movie works as a revenge fantasy...Yet anybody who thought about the movie for two minutes would have to conclude it couldn't happen.

It's just too bad that you can see everything coming from a mile away.

Bad in a good way if you appreciate this sort of silly thriller.

An adequate popcorn matinee flick that's anchored by Judd's wonderful lead performance -- a performance that is better than the film earns or deserves.

For all its familiar conventions and hoary improbabilities, Double Jeopardy is a relatively efficient model of its kind.
