Lincoln Lawyer..

So, Matthew McConaughey is back at it again playing a high powered attorney in this flick. For anyone who didn't catch that reference, he also played a lawyer in A Time to Kill, which happened to be a great movie.

Ryan Phillipe plays his defendant who at first seems to be not guilty and overall a nice guy, but turns dark as the movie progresses. The movie seems like it is a bit too long, and some of the plot twists become a little unbelievable at times, especially when you're nearing the end of the movie. With that being said, it has everything that make it a good crime drama, short of being written by John Grisham.

If you're a fan of A Time to Kill or the Rainmaker and/or crime drama/law movies then this one should be your cup of tea, even though it does have more action and plot twists than most. I'd recommend watching it at least once.
