Where's the Twist? submitted by markwells on May 17, 2015, 11:50am Good courtroom dramas have that surprising twist at the end. I kept waiting but it didn't happen here. There seemed to be a lack of interesting chemistry amongst the characters as well. A good premise that failed to live up to its potential. Grade: C.

Just ok submitted by 23lisq on July 1, 2015, 11:42pm This movie lacks any chemistry. I wanted to like it, but could not get into it

Well done submitted by mmckenzie on July 9, 2015, 1:35pm Of course, your perspective will influence your feeling of this film, but I was surprised that I enjoyed it so much (my friend did, too). Especially good to see that Robert Downey can really act, and he's not just a screw up. Was rather intense and painful to watch at times, many times, but it was worth it.
I did liked the mystery of 'who did it', and esp the final courtroom scene. Always appreciate integrity.
