Review of The Firm (1993) by Armando P — 04 Aug 2018

Sydney Pollack tries its best to pull together a complex advocate-crime drama with certain thrilling elements and all the charm and talent its cast could bring, including a solid Tom Cruise in the lead role, but an over length plot that keeps expanding, and the lack of genuine suspense and wit does cero help into compensating for its familiar themes and almost boring takes on its own plot, something not even Gene Hackman was able to improve with his pleasant presence.
