      Audience Member A surprisingly good script and decent acting, in the beginning. However, mid way through the movie the lack of a budget becomes obvious and draining on the momentum of the movie. The love interest with the client is a strain on both the script and the actor's acting abilities. From there, the film goes down hill very fast. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Okay granted, this movie will not win an academy award however, it is very entertaining!! Its a good watch on movie night at the crib. I am not sure why some people are saying is not a good movie but Don't LISTEN!!Check this one out for yourselves. The characters are polished and clear about their roles in this movie. The plot although done before doesn't bore you. You don't anticipate what's coming next. Also there is a surprise element to the way this attorney defends his clients whether they are innocent or not. So grab a friend or a date get your favorite snacks and dig in for this one. I promise you wont be disappointed!! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member I cannot believe 17 ppl voted100% on this, probably the crew that worked on this film and would get fired if they put anything otherwise. Pro-bono actors filled with cheesy one liners and after 18 minutes of watching this made for TV movie, I must say most of these actors need more lessons and the writer need to stop putting cheesy lines and the director looked straight out of film school. I'm not sure what to make of this movie as I had to stop myself after less than 20 minutes. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
