So, thought I'd just support my husbands choice for a movie and made a decision to like it, even before we arrived. An extraordinary film. In all ways. The cinematography was breathtaking, the character development was meticulous, yet subtle. A level of tension was kept at a medium to high level pretty much throughout the entire film, which made the attention required to follow the smart and sophisticated story line seem effortless. An academy award performance was created by George Clooney. The last scene, was genius. Clooney's speechless performance, at the very end, as a few primary credits rolled, quietly and with little adieu, along the right side of the screen is not to be missed. A film goers little slice of artistic heaven. Don't miss it.

Those without sight we call "blind". Those without hearing we call "deaf". Those without speech we call "mute". Those without a conscience we call "attorneys". Lawyers are nothing more than conscienceless mercenaries of greed, and this fine film makes that point rather adroitly. Every blue moon there's a story about an attorney that was actually born with a conscience- that's what this film is about.

Intelligent script and an interesting novel story kept me intrigued throughout the movie. Very well acted. I can't remember when I've seen a movie that succeeded so well on the fundamentals without using gratuitous sex to prop up interest. Well Done.

I really liked this movie. It's intelligent and full of suspense.

Excellent - well directed. Crisp and just when you thought you couldn't figure it out because of the intricacies, it became clear. It was great. George Clooney and Tom Wilkinson were superb, as always. But you can have Tilda Swinton. For me, she is an interesting as watching paint dry. Why not put Glenn Close in there? cal
