Review of Primal Fear (1996) by Michael A — 14 Apr 2009

This movie has been out since '96 but it's good to see one of Norton's first major films. It's interesting to see the progression of how he's come a long way from this character. I have to say that it would seem that playing a character with such diversity would be difficult.

Norton made it look like a walk in the park. It was seamless. Richard Gere, I have to say, that even in this film he was looking old. But there doesn't seem to be any other actor that seems to play a lawyer as well.

Laura Linney is awesome. She's great at almost any part, but I love it when she gets a part where she plays a no nonsense, in control woman who will take nothing from no man.
