not so good

Rating: 5/10 (23 January 2000)

The directing was quite good, Denzel Washington was excellent and the supporting cast just okay, but... well the story didn't touch me at all. It's cliché, and it looks like a Readers Digest's book of the month or something. It's a true story but it still remain a variation of an over-used story. And it's very difficult to believe it a true story, too: like, where do the canadians get their money? And what kind of attorney did Carter get in the first place? It was an next to impossible to lose case. A five years old trisomic child could see that the motive was a scam.
