Murder In The First
Description
Henry, a small-time criminal sent to Alcatraz, is caught attempting to escape and as punishment, he's put in solitary confinement. After being taken out of it, almost immediately, Young took a spoon and stabbed a fellow prisoner in the neck, killing him. Now, it's a rookie lawyer who proves Alcatraz is to blame, and that Henry should not be executed.

Slater, who in certain shots looks curiously like Kevin Costner, is an actor with talent, but he is too young for this role, and not confident enough to dial down a little.

Moving story of justice but too intense for kids.

An arbitrary by-the-numbers courtroom/crime yarn that sometimes shifts between being too preachy and pretentious.

It is Bacon's absolutely powerhouse performance that helps make 'Murder' one of the classic prison pictures of all time. (published 1-27-95)

A must see for Kevin Bacon's performance, especially in the early scenes.

Though based on a true story, this grueling drama is peopled by characters that have been fictionalized into big house cliches.

More than likely you will forgive the compromises -- the story of Henri Young needed to be told.

Average thriller.

Woefully over-manipulative and over-the-top.

O roteiro maniqueísta e a direção pesada, nada sutil, de Rocco comprometem irremediavelmente o filme - que ainda conta com a atuação nada convincente de Slater.

An example of what happens when a picture has everything going for it except good writing and good direction.

The figures are right, the investment looks good, but the emotional pay-off is minimal.
