Although some of the passages are confusing, this movie still perfectly shows a picture of a lawyer dealing with a real case. The truthfulness of the trial scene presented in this film is no less than that of any other film-it is an analysis of a trial rather than a murder. The film inevitably has some clichés, such as the comparison between a rural lawyer and an urban skater, the drunken but wise partner, the last-minute witness, and some unexpected plots. But the film is very successful, especially in the performance of lengthy court trials, is one of the most true description of legal procedures in the film
.
The story told by the film still has many suspenses, but the most important thing is that it reminds people of the myth that “court debate is the best channel to reveal the truth”, old man McCarthy’s long praise of the jury system, and Bigler’s response to “goodness”. The persistent belief that "the evil is rewarded and everyone can't escape" may not always become a reality. A group of highly professional legal professionals, for the justice they pursue, "impulsively" display outstanding talents inside and outside the court, but the final judgment may not necessarily be justice. The reason is whether the case is complicated or the law is vague? Was it the skill of the defense, or was the prosecution accused of negligence? Is it a congenital deficiency of program design, or a "reasonable error" in practice? Faced with this series of confusing questions, let the audience think slowly in the film and reality with a heart of awe of the law
