This is a movie about a disaster of a person and an even worse lawyer. He literally can't do anything right. He gets his young client killed because of his incompetence and foibles. He refuses to compromise on anything and yet doesn't appear to do anything of value throughout the entire film. He has an amazing memory, a Savant and a mysterious history where he was supposedly greatly successful. But he is corrupt and weak. An awful human being. Miraculously, after he should be fired and disbarred, the slick law firm rewards him after the mother of the son he got killed forgives him. She earlier warned him him sternly not to mess up. I guess getting her son killed was cool.
I have no idea what this movie intends. He is the worst "hero" of all time. Seriously?? Are we supposed to like him? Feel sympathy for him? He gets asked out by the hot younger girl. What the hell!?!?! Who wrote this plot? She finds him inspiring for his mysterious past which we are not privy to. Yet he has done nothing but disrespect her and her life.
His eternally forgiving boss, Colin Farrell, is another who seems to admire him based on the vague mystery of his past. All really really confusing. He eventually gets his just desserts, in front of his boss who tries to save him.
Oh, in the end his boss goes through his mystery papers, we are to assume they were really really great. Earth shattering. Haha!
What a load of codswallop!!
A disaster of a movie!!
