I was glad to have been watching this when I was watching this. Thats how movies are suppose to be.
Most movies have to show you why a character is dope this one delivers it with good performances by some pretty decent actors and it is believable. You get drawn in early and want this guy to come out victorious in whatever he is gonna involve himself in.
Matthew McConaughey plays a dope lawyer named Mick Haller in this one. Mick rolls around in a old clean ass Lincoln with a driver. Thats his office. He is a hustler on the go. He's got workers and if you don't work for him he'll get you to, if need be. He has connects in the right side of law and him being a dope lawyer affords him connects on the wrong side of the law. Dude is out for his paper in this one and shows what a dope lawyer is about, getting the job done.
Early on in this movie he gets put on a potential client. A homie of Mick (John Leguizamo-Benny Blanco from the Bronx) puts him on to some money, a rich kid got himself into some bullshit and needed some assistance from a professional who cleans up bullshit. This case is what makes this movie.
Some whore got beat up and they think this rich kid did it. He was there on the scene, he had blood on his left hand, the whore had a beat up right side of her face, a knife was there as well with blood on it, pretty clear cut case. Not when you got a dope lawyer on your team and Mick is that dude. Mick is in for a little more than he expected when taking this case on though.
There are some good twists in this one and none throw the movie off. It keeps you interested. Good overall all around show.
My Rating:
4.5 / 5 I liked this one. Solid film
