After seeing a preview for the movie, "The Lincoln Lawyer," with Matthew McConaughey, I decided I must see this movie. McConaughey plays Mickey Haller, a top criminal defense attorney in L.A., who is not very highly respected by other attorneys and law enforcement officers because of his ability to use his knowledge of the legal system to his clients' advantage. When he is asked to defend the son of a wealthy family on a rape and murder charge, the inducements are too enticing to refuse. However, that case puts him in the middle of an ethical and personal dilemma that changes his life as well as threatens not only his personal safety but the safety of those near and dear to him. This is a thriller that is fascinating to watch and the ethical dilemmas led to lengthy discussions with my spouse after the movie had ended.
If you enjoy fast paced thrillers with twists and turns, I highly recommend this movie showcasing not only McConaughey's acting skills but also those of the supporting cast.
