Jelisije J @jjosifovic Apr 12, 2026 The first 30 minutes isn't well acted or even really good, but this film later gives of a connection that was missing in the first act when they decided to focus on two parts of the story that actually matters. See more Bill T @Spuzzlightyear Apr 26, 2023 In all honesty, this movie should be called "Crispin Glover's Crime and Punishment", because he adds, well, a uniqueness to his portrayal of the lead character. Glover is just SO much that it almost detracts from the story (which in this version is actually quite good) and leads others (like Vanessa Redgrave for crying out loud) to overcompensate. Still it's fun to see this one when you've seen all the others. See more Sep 19, 2016 There isn't much to see here, as the plot is quite simple: a man kills and spends the entire film dreading his capture by the police. However, Crispin Glover's performance of a man riddled with guilt and fear (what he does best) is worth seeing, as he encapsulates every emotion with authenticity and complex emotion. See more Sep 24, 2010 Literal but strange adaptation of the story. Glover is very weird, even by his standards. Seeing Moscow is nice. See more Jul 10, 2010 A fairly good adaptation of the novel. The scenes are dark and close, which compliments the story nicely, and Crispin Glover is humorous, creepy and likeable all at once, delivering a good performance as Raskolnikov. Loses points for the thick American accents though. See more Grant S @grantss Jun 1, 2010 A fairly dull and uninspired adaptation of Dostoyevsky's novel. Crispin Glover is irritating and unconvincing in the lead role. Cinematography is drab, like the movie was made in the 1960s. Direction is listless, with no imagination. If you were hoping to watch this instead of reading the book, don't. See more Read all reviews
