Haunted by the memory of Walter Holderlin, a soldier he killed during World War I, French musician Paul Renard (Phillips Holmes) confesses to a priest (Frank Sheridan), who grants him absolution. Using the address on a letter he found on the dead man's body, Paul then travels to Germany to find his family.
As anti-French sentiment continues to permeate Germany, Dr. Holderlin (Lionel Barrymore) initially refuses to welcome Paul into his home, but changes his mind when his son's fiancée Elsa identifies him as the man who has been leaving flowers on Walter's grave. Rather than reveal the real connection between them, Paul tells the Holderlin family he was a friend of their son, who attended the same musical conservatory he did.
Although the hostile townspeople and local gossips disapprove, the Holderlins befriend Paul, who finds himself falling in love with Elsa (Nancy Carroll). When she shows Paul her former fiancé's bedroom, he becomes distraught and tells her the truth. She convinces him not to confess to Walter's parents, who have embraced him as their second son, and Paul agrees to forego easing his conscience and stays with his adopted family. Dr. Holderlin presents Walter's violin to Paul, who plays it while Elsa accompanies him on the piano.
The film's original title, The Man I Killed, was changed to The Fifth Commandment to avoid giving "wrong impressions in the minds of the public about the character of the story." It ultimately was released as Broken Lullaby.
人物转变生硬，塑造不够立体，要是拍成连续剧就好了。结尾强行正能量尴尬至极，反而反衬出——有钱真的可以为所欲为，连让证人做真口供都需要用钱。智叔真的很拼，遗作都有好几部。
看完感觉蛮复杂的心情，提到鸡蛋跟高墙的对立，结果打败高墙的是团伙的内讧，以及用伪造证据的手法。程序非正义的正义是不是正义？
影片二星，加一星鼓励。港片的辉煌，就如同廖启智的生命一样，一去不复返了。
不及格是因为全部都是老演员，骆应钧都快70岁的人了，还演没退休的检控官吗？新演员没有令人记忆的演出，这样下去香港电影真的是没有任何希望了。
好久没看港片了，粤语听着真舒服…但是这剧情对不起这名字，还以为是控方证人类型的
一开始就猜到了结局…… 都是好演员，就是太缺一分悬念让人聚精会神。
廖启智最后一部戏 智叔演技一直无可挑剔 虽然该片是网大 RIP智叔
3+
浪费了演员配置，打败魔法的还是魔法不是现实
强迫症让我看完的。最好看的居然是游艇上两个老戏骨的对手戏。
正义战胜邪恶，即使是制造出来的正义，也好过让坏人逍遥法外。
『一级指控』廖启智先生遗作，没上院线走了网络，曾江、方中信、谭耀文、鲍起静等一众老戏骨坐镇，演技实赞，整个案件并不复杂，拍法颇有港剧风味，内核设定还是有想法的，但表述不清，尤其最后真相的揭露完全是靠势均力敌的资本内讧，让立意一下子显得很苍白无力。【6分】
剧情是比较松散，节奏也比较拖沓，而且其中有很多细节是没有好好交代清楚的，比如cat那个女生为什么突然就反水了，化验报告为什么不能作为呈堂证供，不过作为廖启智的最后遗作，还是奉献了不错的演技。最后的解决感觉如果换成一家平民家庭这个案子就盖棺定论了。
最后五分钟bgm好高级
五星给所有这些HK演员的演技，以及那些几十年前我就在tvb剧看到的配角们，时光流转，情怀依在。
政商勾结的普通故事，方大状诛心阴招让其反目。#陈家乐也老了
反转有点突兀，拍摄手法很hktv，剧情设计又有点tvb，结尾强行说教也扣分，但是智叔的演技还是很值得加一星，方中信应该是蹭了当年《律政强人》的光再演大状吧，另外就是案发现场两位年轻演员的演技也真是一言难尽了
就这片子的呈现的香港法律环境，香港能好就怪了。而就这片子网大一样的制作水平，港片能复兴也就怪了
廖启智最后一部戏 智叔演技一直无可挑剔 虽然该片是网大 RIP智叔
三星半吧，因为故事情节基本和猜测一致！没啥难度！但是不知不觉就看完了，另外方中信也挺帅的。
