JD  [ 6.5 ]    [ add to preferred ]

A little bit of a lesser known John Grisham book to movie adaption. It has all the star power that is needed in Julia Roberts and Denzel Washington, but the movie feels a little slow and confusing at times, and it just doesn't measure up to a few of the other films taken from Grisham based on the legal profession.

chapter11  [ 5.5 ]    [ add to preferred ]

Ironically enough, this technically proficient but sludgy and baffling legal thriller is anything but brief. Avoid in favor of "The Client," but, on the upside, it's probably a better bet than, say, "The Chamber."

kcremer  [ 6.5 ]    [ add to preferred ]

Not as good as some other movies derived from John Grisham novels, like The Client and A Time to Kill.
