If you have never seen this film, then stop reading reviews and watch it because the film really works better if you don't know anything about it.
Now, the film is certainly flawed, but it's still interesting to watch.
I love courtroom thrillers, and there's plenty of court drama here, but not enough to make the picture work. I think another 20 minutes would've added much more depth to courtroom sequences.
The acting is excellent, but the direction could've been sharper. I found the romance to be contrived, never had a flow to it, it just happened.
Some blame must go to the screenplay, it wasn't strong, not enough depth to the characters, and some of the courtroom stuff was unrealistic.
The photography is excellent, it hooked me into the picture.
Overall, a good film, but I think the writing was a bit lazy.
