Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Love the movie, great movie, hoblit it's a great director, how about a new movie? perhaps, another thriller, he's so good at that!
Willy Beachum (Ryan Gosling) is an Assistant D.A. with a 97% courtroom success rate. He attributes his success to being a hot-shot attorney but it must actually be because he only takes sure-fire cases-nothing else explains his success when viewed against his generally moronic conduct. Beachum, having earned his chops on the public dime is now ditching them for the private sector where he can make some real bucks, however, with a couple of weeks to kill he accepts one last open-and-shut case: the attempted murder by Ted Crawford (Anthony Hopkins) of his cheating wife. Police captured Crawford at the scene of the crime, they got the murder weapon and a signed confession yet, perversely, Crawford decides he will defend himself against the charges in court and Beachum finds himself being out-manoeuvred Will justice be served? Will you care? There are no surprises here.
(Flash Review)What would you do if you caught your significant other fooling around on the side? I bet it wouldn't be as intricate as what Hopkin's character does! Thus this film is cat and mouse to see if brilliant- minded Hopkins will he be able to get away with his revenge and if Gosling, the successful yet young trial lawyer, can uncover his true actions. The story held your attention despite dragging near the middle, was well acted, had some professional plot reveals yet overall wasn't memorable and moderately formulaic. That being said, it's a quality film for the genre with big name actors. Oh and there was an underdeveloped romantic angle that didn't pass the mustard.
a fascinating one between two solid characters. and a seductive game of mind between two remarkable actors. a crime. and the fight for proves, circle of suppositions, large circles of doubts, the truth in fragile equilibrium. result - a delightful film, provocative, strange, trip on large and long halls with closed doors. and the key as a too subjective instrument to discover the expected answer. a duel. one of the most fascinating.
