Challenging film

Rating: 9/10 (18 June 2003)

Reeves is hotshot southern lawyer recruited by Manhattan firm. Pacino is managing partner with, shall we say, unusual powers. Reeves is presented with moral issues in a way that seems pretty appropriate, that is to say, entirely unusual for Hollywood which normally has its own unfounded moral agenda. This is one of a small handful of lawyer movies I can stand to watch. It's a good show.
