Review of The Firm (1993) by Toodledoo — 05 Aug 2020

Almost everything about this film is capable while doing its best to be absolutely unremarkable. Two and a half hours of boring intrigue with no stakes being conveyed as worth my interest at any point.

Are we supposed to LIKE any of the characters, or care that they're at risk? Everyone involved are just so stilted and insufferable, and what actually is that soundtrack? It's like they scored a chain barbecue restaurant commercial but then realized they were actually doing a a thriller score and changed nothing.

There are better things you can do with your time than watch this. I'm no Grisham fan so maybe everything was lost on me.
