The Student (I) (2017)
3/10
It was okay until the end

I have never been on the villain's side so much and hated the "hero". The professor was absolute garbage, she stalked this student and put her nose in places it did not belong. I was on Vance's side the entire movie and he ended up dead. I think he should've won. Main reason being is because the professor is a nosy hypocrite. She preached about ethics and consequences, yet she ran away from hers. She's an absolute mess and just overall not a likable character whatsoever. Literally, not a single thing that I liked about her. Vance wasn't the best either but it seemed like if the prof gave him the grade he deserved he wouldn't have done anything. The prof acts as if the court room isn't about winning. You do whatever you can to prove innocence of your client, even if it isn't completely what you believe in. I would've given this movie like 7.5/10 if Vance won this "battle". The movie itself was predictable and easy to watch which personally does not bother me. The acting wasn't super cringy but it had its moments. The movie does have so many flaws when it comes to the law, and you would think a movie about law would do more research but it's not that big of a deal in my opinion, since literally every movie misrepresents the system.
