From Amazon.com

Eddie Dodd (James Woods) is a former '60s radical lawyer who now spends his time cynically defending drug dealers for the big bucks. But an idealistic young protégé (Robert Downey Jr.) convinces him to take one case from the heart: a young Chinese immigrant unjustly accused in a gang slaying. Woods (complete with add-on ponytail) fairly hums with energy once he gets cooking here. Playing the been-there-done-that mentor--not to mention legal gadfly--gives Woods plenty of opportunity to run off at the mouth with spicy one-liners and zingers. But it also allows him to do some real acting, capturing Eddie's denial and sense of disappointment in himself. Plus his vehicle is a not-too-shabby mystery by thrillmeister director Joseph Ruben (Sleeping with the Enemy). --Marshall Fine

Review

Joseph Ruben's legal thriller about the awakening of a former '60s activist lawyer is James Woods' show all the way, and his passion takes the script to another level. While the story of a cynical older character who's reignited by an idealistic neophyte is hardly new, Strick's sharp, engaging, and fast-moving script, studded with '60s references, and threaded through with the theme of racism, would be absorbing with any actor in the lead. But Woods, as the burnt-out lawyer who has adjusted to the greed of the '80s by trying to pretend that he's protecting crucial legal principles in defending drug dealers, has never had a role to which he was so perfectly suited, and he tears into it with a riveting intensity. If the lawyer has long ago realized that the utopian vision of his youth was an illusion, he can suddenly appreciate a smaller battle where justice can still be won. Although some may be amused by the irony of Downey telling his boss to, in effect, put down the joint and get to work, the actor is an excellent foil for Woods in this tough-love relationship. The feisty Margaret Colin also scores as a laid-back investigator who gives as good as she gets, and Kurtwood Smith is effective as a federal attorney who practices a cold-blooded version of realpolitik. ~ Michael Costello, All Movie Guide

4.0étoiles sur 5 A winner film, Jui 2 2004
Par Hiram Gomez Pardo (Valencia, Venezuela) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
James Woods has been one of the best actors in the screen. He is outstanding and always he commits in just five hundred per cent in all his performances. Powerful and expressive, but in Hollywood he has had just isolated opportunities. It's missunderstable.
Earl Dodd is very special lawyer, he isn't a typical image of lucky lawyer. and obviously our character lived with too much passion those singular decades from the sixties and seventies.
From this perpective a singular case challenges him; to assume the defense of a chinese acussed of murder, being not guilty. This movie will tell about all the resources and special methods of our antihero for winning this dark case.
Robert Downey Jr. plays the typical role of the rookie naif lawyer who thinks the world is fair and clean. Soon he'll learn too many issues about how to deal with the life and specaiily in this business.
A well built script allows Woods to release all his stamina and skills, specially in front the Court in the first half of the film.
Solid film , with smart situations and a fine sense of humor. Worthy work.

1.0étoiles sur 5 Boring, Mai 7 2004
Par Un client
I'm a big James Woods fan and came across this movie here. I have never heard of it and it is not available at any of the video stores in my area. So I ordered it because of all the positive reviews here, but wound up turning it off in the middle. It was real long, uninteresting, and was taking too long for anything to happen. If you haven't seen this movie before, I would recommend you not buy this yet, like I did. Try checking out "Indictment" or "Dirty Pictures", two of Woods's best movies.
