Review of The Lincoln Lawyer (2011) by William C — 28 Jan 2015

Grade:Lower 8/10.

The Lincoln Lawyer is a thrilling courtroom drama that serves to give.

The viewer a mystery and a smartly written and acted film. I felt it.

Was a very good film and I can't see why people wouldn't at least find.

It OK as it's story is yes nothing new, but it is done well and very.

Well of that. The film is definitely worth a watch and if you enjoy.

This genre of film then just see it as I think it will please those who.

Are even used to the format of the film. Here below is why I believe.

This film is strongly Very Good.

The story as I say maybe not the newest of things but still serves to.

Entertain you and you can't suspect what will happen next in the story.

It goes at a nice pace and things are revealed in a way where it is not.

Dragged out, you just know that and have to wait for the next piece of.

Evidence or drama to come. I did enjoy the ending although because so.

Many things happen within the last few minutes of the film, you don't.

Know what is going on and feel it should just end there, they do the.

Ending parts well but it just stretch a lot. Finally on the story it is.

Also witty and not to say it has humour but Matthew McConaughey can be.

Very smart and his comebacks to the more villainous people in this are.

Excellent.

McConaughey is great in the role and this is by far one of his.

Strongest roles ever in truth, other people in it such as Marisa Tomei.

Are also good she lead a very emotional performance and so rarely was.

Happy where as most other characters got that chance. I felt the acting.

Together was good and the ensemble did strongly in situations that.

Maybe didn't a custom there talents really. The characters in the film.

Are diverse and by the end you feel this is important because some.

Parts are just a little slow so certain personalities guide you through.

Nicely.

I enjoyed the script which was smartly delivered in the courtroom.

Setting and made for a dramatic load of sequences and I particularly.

Liked that the film wasn't always in court, it took us out to gather.

Notes and then we could form our own opinion(but McConaughey does most.

Of the work for us by the end). Direction was solid and was fun with.

Some interesting things going on around the main cast, but in the end.

Whoever made this film as a project decided to make this a dark.

Courtroom thriller and so the film never get's serious enough to really.

Warrant fun and laughter from the main cast(William H. Macy provides a.

More light performance than most here).

It is not too long to be fair to it but maybe some bit's do drag and.

Along with what I said previously about the ending part, there are some.

Bits which start to also drag for example the beginning of the film.

Which I felt yes introduced the characters, but we already knew them.

Well mid introduction. The story as I said isn't predictable but the.

Formula it goes on well, it is similar to many law and order type films.

Which serve to never truly get the bad guy right until the end, this.

Film isn't predictable who is the true perp, but you can still stay.

Very frustrated with the plot that has taken influence from other such.

Things in truth.

I said people who enjoy courtroom would enjoy and that is what I stick.

Too because in all truth and all it true. Nothing new to them yes but.

Nevertheless should serve up just enough drama to get you or them glued.

To the screen in unpredictable circumstances. Many who like straight.

Drama will also like it and those who enjoy smart films where at the.

End you think "this plot is sly", you do feel by the end that the.

Soundtrack also even emphasised certain characters, and makes them seem.

So much more cool than for what they really did in the story.

Overall I give it a lower 8/10, I nearly gave it a B+ but maybe felt it was too.

Overrating, I don't feel many can call this a great film and my rating.

Is stretching it yes but Ii believe many will love this. Anyone can.

Enjoy this, and don't feel that if you don't watch many films in this.

Kind of setting, you can't enjoy it, you can I assure you because it.

Has other good assets and any fan of Matthew McConaughey should really.

Enjoy this too because of his strong performance and ice cold law.

Skills, it seriously feels like he doesn't care about being there at.

Times, but then does really well, see for yourself.
