Movie Review: Convict Me

Dante 2022-09-14 00:06:27

This film can actually be regarded as a modern version of "Twelve Angry Men", with various editing and descriptions. It's a pity that there are still the same problems as "12". Too much sensibility replaces rationality. Gangsters are portrayed as good men with affection and righteousness, while prosecutors and others have become villains who are forced to obey, and their facial expressions are serious. And the inaction of the prosecution makes the story lack spark, and it can only be regarded as an ordinary work for Sidney Lumet.

In fact, anyone who knows a little about debate skills knows that in most cases, the negative side has an advantage over the positive side, and the so-called lawyer's trick is nothing more than constantly raising doubts from the validity of evidence or witnesses. The final acquittal can only be said It is the price paid for procedural justice.

Find Me Guilty quotes

  • Giacomo 'Fat Jack' DiNorscio: My marshals have been giving me a hard time for weeks now. Everybody gets to eat what they want, and not me. I gotta eat what they bring me. I ordered, uh... creamy peanut butter, and they brought me chunky.

    Judge Finestein: Please, Mr. DiNorscio, this isn't my department. Take it up at MCC.

  • Chris Newberger: You know what I heard one of the lady jurors say today. She said he was cute.

    Sean Kierney: Cute? What the fuck is wrong with these people? Does she have any idea how much money these bastards cost her? If a hammer and a nail are used on her house, her daughter's apartment, every fuckin' thing is costing her more because of these cute guys. She sees a truck carrying concrete, she's paying for it. Garbage being picked up at a restaurant, she's paying for it. She buys perfume from France, gloves from Italy, she's paying more because it came off a fuckin' boat! Not to mention, that they fuckin' kill people from time to time!
