Description: This is a handsome retelling of Dostoevsky's novel of justice and conscience in Czarist Russia.Appropriately ornate and squalid location shooting in Budapest, Hungary, replicates 19th-century St. Petersburg, where impoverished young idealist Raskolnikov (Dempsey), comparing himself to Napoleon, murders a greedy moneylender (and an unlucky witness), rationalising that it's for the betterment of society. But the scholarly killer underestimates the power of guilt, especially as a patient police inspector (Kingsley) closes in on him. Even with the simplified English-language dialogue, the script does an excellent job of distilling a lengthy book and its weighty themes.
