Plot Summary
The body of a prep school student has been discovered in a nearby river, and though the death was originally listed as a suicide one detective believes that it may have actually been the result of a fraternity hazing gone awry in director Nick Willing's snowbound mystery. Detective Abel Grey (Edward Burns) isn't willing to write off the case as a suicide just yet, and with a little help from sympathetic teacher Betsy Chase (Jennifer Ehle) he hopes to uncover the truth behind the mysterious and untimely death. As a series of elusive clues lead Detective Grey ever closer to the truth, he is forced to confront not only the increasingly complex facts in the case of the student death, but his own repressed emotions related to the suicide of his older brother years earlier as well.
Customer Reviews
The River King
A movie for grown-ups! Good story, good acting, good photography, good sound and a plot you can actually follow!!
so good
i rented this right when it came out like 4 years ago or something like that, its good. Kinda like a crime movie like csi sorta. I hate it when the guy gets beat up, its so sad. LOVED IT!
Terrible
The movie completely butchered one of my favorite book! The script lost 95% of the content I loved about the book and succeeded to make a heart-breaking classic into a totally lame murder mystery/ghost story! They even changed the ending!! The actings are horrible and the actors have absolutely zero chemistry!!! Just forget the movie and read the book instead!
