An interesting portrayal of social problems few talk about

Rating: 9/10 (6 July 2014)

A brother is a pilot in Canada. Well before the events 'portrayed' in this movie happened, he talked about persistent 'hidden' problems like that Denzel Washington portrays so well. While the opening sexual scenes might initially draw some attention in for most watchers, it was the revelation about drugs in too many lives of people working in jobs like this that really drew me in... I did not, therefore, find parts of the movie, or the movie itself, 'too long'. And, since I am writing a book about the corruption of our lawyers, who will do anything to 'protect their client' while the truth ultimately suffers, Washington portrays an individual who seemed to understand better, in the end, what the word 'justice' really means. A riveting movie that I rented but would buy instead...
