Movie Review: The Lincoln Lawyer

In this excellent courtroom thriller, Matthew McConaughey stars as a smart defense lawyer Mike Haller, who makes his money defending the worst of the criminals by exploiting the loopholes in the law and pulling his connections and contacts. When he is hired to defend a rich spoilt brat (Ryan Phillippe) against charges of rape and attempted murder, he has no idea that the web of deceit and intrigue will quickly engulf him, and his family. His only chance is to think ahead of his opponent and lose to win!

Matt is fantastic, the screenplay and dialogues engrossing, the pace quick - all in all, a real entertainer.
