just a bit old n dull n boring n samey

Very disappointing, the case you want to hear about, summed up with a few lines of script put on screen at the end. Travolta is poorly cast in this, not good at portraying a genuine person, a bad actor in other words.

Well, that was a bit bloody pointless. I've just watched this and I still don't know if they won. Did they win? All I do know is that JT's character[spoiler] didn't have a pot to piss in, nor a window to chuck it out of at the end[/spoiler].

It is neither the advertised thriller (because for that, it would need to thrill, which it absolutely does not) nor a good movie (because that would need an interesting story and good acting, which is not the case, especially not in the case of Travolta). To me, two hours about a lawyer's transformation from cash-hungry macho to totally broke Average-Joe are just boring!

this court thriller is not about the case only, it's also about the system and the job as a lawyer. William H. Macy is just brillant in his performance. You are a lawyer or want to become one ? Watch this movie and look at the wall that you want to climb. 8/10
