3 out of 5 stars Doubt you'll see it more than once.......2003-07-01

On the one hand, "Element of Doubt" is an interesting thriller with good performances that keep you guessing. On the other hand, it's more distasteful than fun -- unlike Hitchcock's "Suspicion," which is obviously its inspiration.

It's certainly worth seeing -- once. But what makes subsequent viewings of mysteries enjoyable are other elements (like humor or particularly interesting performances) that compensate for the lack of surprise once you know the plot twists. Unfortunately, you won't find those extra elements here.
