Washington City Paper

Noah Gittell

There’s a fresh thrill in seeing the conventions of the courtroom drama trotted out for the first time, and its lingering sense of moral ambiguity is still jarring.

The questions, like the suspense, mount explosively... And even as movie-goers file out of the theater, some of the issues remain in doubt.

... crackles as Stewart and Scott spar with witnesses and one another: the cagey country lawyer hiding his endgame behind a folksy manner versus the smart, sarcastic, thoroughly urban legal eagle who makes a show of his intelligence and showmanship.

With no character shown to be faultless, the movie's real masterstroke is to expose the messiness of criminal trials and America's divides.
