I remember a master director said: When evaluating the quality of a film, it depends on what appears in the camera at the beginning, even if it is a knife randomly hung on the wall, you will find its use later.

When you watch it for the second time, you will find that this film is artistically fine.

The plot may not be so suspenseful, how can a hero fight alone with a group of decent guys-lawyers. In addition, you will also know how these sky-high compensation lawsuits are fought in foreign countries, and what roles do all the people in them play? The huge pressure behind those scenery, and people's inextricability and indulge in this whirlpool.

On the whole, this film made a violent attack on the glorious American middle class!

Another surprise is that the professional and efficient work style and method of lawyers in the film attracted me deeply!

    "Language is something to be in awe of, and it would be foolish to judge a film in another language with subtitles." . . I pinched my nose and divided the films I watched 4 times. After reading the film review, I found that I didn’t understand it at all. I will go back and watch it again today. . .

  • Marty Bach: And if it's nostalgia? "Oh boy you should've seen me when I was a D.A. back in Queens." Let me give you a serious piece of advice. Leave it there. God forbid you're not as good as you remember because I've seen that happen too.
