A great example of Hollywood style entertainment.A

Rating: 8/10 (17 August 2000)

A very entertaining Hollywood version of a true-life story and shows the good side of our legal system. Julia Roberts lights up the screen, as usual, with a fun and energetic performance, nicely balanced by Albert Finney. If you saw the trailers and weren't sure, don't worry. They didn't show you all the good stuff. It's all at least as funny in context and there's LOTS more. Relatively frequent f-words, but they fit the context and especially the character. Over two hours, but not too long. Enjoyed it even more than I expected. 8/10
