Review of The Judge (2014) by Paul N — 02 Dec 2014
Great acting - I swear Robert Downey Jr may just be the best actor on the planet right now. He completely owns the screen with both presence and finesse. Robert Duvall is great. The story is fine for the most part, but it drags in parts. It's a 2:30 movie that would have been better at about 1:45. And, there were some things in there that simply weren't believable (like why an intelligent Judge would hire a total buffoon of a lawyer). Overall, while Robert Downey Jr puts on a great performance, the movie is a bit drawn out and there are nonsensical moments that eat away at its believability. Worth a viewing, but don't expect to be overly moved.
Grade = 6/10.
