The Lincoln Lawyer
This is my reviewe on the linloc lawyer from 2011 (The year of Transformers The Headmasters and Robotech)
Its based on a book i never read by Michael Connelly who did bloodwork
it starts mattew mcconnalhwy, marisa tomei, Ryan Phillippe from I Know What You Did Last Summer and Igby Goes Down, John Leguizamo from the Good Super Mario Bros Movie, michael pena from mule, bob gunton from demolition man and the shawshank redemption, frances fisher from titanic, bryan cannston from that macross spin off dub, billianm h mascy from jurassic park 3, Trace Adkins, shea whighham from big miracle, michael pare from the virgin suicides, and a buncha dinks i never heard of
its directal by Simon i mean Mark I mean Brad Furman who did cr-p i never saw
i never saw this b4 but heard the name and thought it was based on something by john gruisham
this was rated R in America, 16+ in Poland, 12 in spain netherlands, portugal and germany, and 11+ in Denmark and norway
so after several logos (we know its lions gate! p-ss off! we don't gotta see it 15 times in a minute!) we get credits and shots of mattthew mcafrica in a car
man this is f-kkin widescreen
so he goes to wurk and luigi from mario bors the movie is his minion
always a number 2
\this guy is accused of beating up a chick and matt from digimon goes to court to do his lawfyer thing and gets a guys name wrong but remembers him from xmas from a gift he gavbe him
he meets this manson looking c-ck sucker named harold and defends him in court and asks for an extention to find a witness that isn't real
he gets it and goes to his big black car with NTGUILTY (Now Now Totally Guilty) and calls this blonde to remind him toi give the wrong name guy 200$ for xmas
his driver asks to stay on and matty sez he got his licsnece bnack 3 months ago
then a biker gang comes at em cuz its mad max or w/e and they stop for em
tyhe leader sez his homie harold sez math is stalling til he gets more money and math sez hwo he's gonna get him feree but needs more money
they pay him and as they drive away, he tells his driver they dont gotta fly in the expert as the best are alrteady in sovieyt hollywood
this is california?! no wonder its f--jked!
then math meeths a teen whois 32 and gives him his stats
a scuzzy guy wants math as his laywer but her sez to wait his turn and teen sez he only has parking tickets and no big charges
later math flirts with a procesuter marisa who sez the teen was found in the victinms home wcovered in blood
they argue for letting him ror or not and hes out on 1 million dollers and an ankle monitor
he meets the dfamily lawyer of the teen and is told to be sensitive of the media
he stops a camera guy who recorede them and buys the tape off it
lawyer sez the teen chose math and math says his price wjhich is high
that laywer looks like lindsey graham
then he meets camera man and splits his money with him and returns the chs tape as he set him up to take the footage to look good
this guys some kind of t r edwards
then math meets a junkie and is also a h00kewr who b0nes guys for money or drsgs and 1 was mexican
math looks into it and the mexican is a furetive and tells where he was to drop the charges
so then math meets teens fam and team and tells mom the money has to come from teen and she can wire him the dough
also she leaves so she can't be used as a witness to what she hears
he sez hes innocent and tells how he went out to a party to pick up chix and saw the victim not into her date and dropping her address on a napkin to him
the prosecution doesn't have much b4 he weent to her place and he got there early and saw the bf leave inn a blueferrarri mustang
he went in and she knocked him out with a headshot and when he woke up these 2 queers from down the hall hwere holding him down
she set him up and put blood on his hand and might've had her butt buddy beat her up
we get the girls side saying he broke in and beat on her and had a knife on her neck
he sez its not his knife and she sed she stopped him with a bottle to the head
later mathmech is having a beer with macy and marisa i think brings him home as hes had too much
he looks kinda devolved and flirths with her as she goes off
da next day macy comes by with the bar camera feed and it backs up teens story and show butt vbudd y is left handed as the watch is on his left hand and the footage is morrored or something
i wore my watch on my right hand and i'm right handed
math shows the opposition who offers 7 years for battery and math and macy go over thew files andfind the kniofeww photo was swapped for them
they check with teen and say he lied about the chick being a h00ker and he sez he didnt want his mom to know
he sez the knife he sed wasnt his wasnt and he always carrys the knife as he shows homes to people they dont know
1 time this guy raeped his mom on a home show and stopped showing holmes
at night he goes to bring a kid to marisa's place and irts implied they made her b4
da next day he talksd with a guy about a past clkient who got hard time and iced someone and this giuy hates math for getting bad guys off
math says he had as client who iced his wife and kept her head in a fridge, but the DA trtied to add things he didnt do
then he meets merisa and chats over beer and wind up back at her place to b0ne
the next day she wakes yp withn their kid in bed with them as she has nightmares
marisa b--cvhes at math for keeping guys outta jail and she sends em there
later math goes over the photoes of the alleged civtim and goes through his files
then he goes to jail to visit a guy who was accused of a crime and admits to b0ning a h--ker
he suggests a deal but the guy says hes innocent
wait, thats a flash nack and he seez the same guy who the fl;ashnavk guiy was charfged for did this teens chick h--ker
he goers to see the guy from flashback, nowe with a shaved head, and he sez at this p0rn0 cluub he met this h--ker and went back with her but saw her talking to a guy
msath shows the guy mug shots and he eventually he snaps as he dont trust math
math goes backand tells m,acy the shavwed head guy was not guilty as the killer shanked the h--ker over 50x
math didnt believe the guy wa innocent as his dad said an innocent client is the most dangerous as if you lose they're f;'d
now math sees teen did it and the last guy is in jaiul for teens criomes
and he cant tell em as hes his atturuny
math driunbk drives out and goes home and wants to look into other chicks teen did
but his door is open and teen is there saying hes in real estate and he knows what mnaths upto
he admits he iced the 1st girl and that ne knows about maths daughter and her life
so its trial and he gives a speech vaguely implying 1 of them, chicxh or teen, is the real predator
later he goes to this crime scene where a guy got capped, and his little dog too, and its macy windoo
the dad from malcom in the middle is a cop and is retiring in 18 months and is a smarta55
then he goos too see luigi and reveals that luigi sent him to teen and teen iced macy and luigi is the only one who can take the tracker off teen
after more booze he goes to see marisa (which is like Japanese for Melissa) and tells her the teens a killer
the next day he chex his answering machine and macy sed he found somthing on teen to save shaved head and was then iced
math mech calls a cop and finds a certain gun iced macy and he finds his guns gone
at da trial the guy in the ferrarri mustang sez he b0ned the h00ker and denies hitting her
later malcoms dad and lady cop have a warrent for his place and search it
the gun was used by a gangster in the 40s that maths dad got off and they stil have the ballistics on file
blonde sez the guy macy had wasa court snitch and is in rehab and math goes to see the junkie b4
at da trial victim sez she knew him from b4 and plays word gumnastics to make her look bad
also he makes her not being known to the h--kers as dangerous means hes safe
after lunch the defence shows their side and mom sez her son carrys a knife cuz someone he knew was raeped and her son found her
the defence sez tthey can do 6 month but teen dont want to deal and msath is putting himon the stande tommorrow
math tells his driver to get something and later hes cross examinining teen who says hes innocent
btw the teen is a frenchie so it explains whoihes a purvo
look at the marquis de sade!
the offense sez to call a rebuttal witness tomorrow and later math checks a list and seez someone iss on there
in the courdt later the witness is said to be the snitch and the juryy is calls out for the laywers to argue
they do and mcafroica puts up an argument but the offense wins and math goes to da hall to make a call and tellsa a chick to come at a set time with a printout
the scuzzy guy from b4 is da snitch and sez teen admitted to giving a (word blanked out on bounce) exactly what she deservbed
math goes on about how scuzz bucket snitched on 4 guys and scuzz sez teen braghgs about icing girls b4
defence i mean offence gets scuzz to say about the other girl teen iced and guy who hated him b4 is there
matjh grills scuzz over fingering a guy of b0ning a 10 yeaR OLD AND the guy was innocent
and now he sez doing this for the offence
judge sends jury out, b--ches at laywers over putting a liar on the stand
later teen in the toilet wants to know how scuzzmo got the info and math sez macy did it b4 teen iced him
the offence lawyer drops the case with predjudice and now tyewen cant be charged with this beat down again
after the trial math sez he wants the gun in whisper and the cops come for teen for icing the chick b4
math sez he's down being teens lawyer and teen sez he styill has teens gun i mean mayths gun
math sez; have fun esxplaining how you got it and they take teen away
macloms dad sez "whos side u on?!' and later math goes to his car weith a ticket in it cuz driver ws getting food
driver has brought what i think is math mcaids dgun back for him and drives him home
he checks his message and calls marisa who sez teen got out and he knows a parking ticket thing to nail teen
he tells get tro gfet outta town and calls luigi to track teen on his tracer
he drives ona cellphone wihile taliing to luigi from kland of the dead or w/e
at a place by a house teen meets math mcdonalds and tells him to take 1 chance to gtfo
teen sez he's not gonna be there all night to protech his fam and the bikers bust up teens car and teen
math sez "hospital, not morh=gue" and lets these mad max dudesd wail on him
marisa sez teen got a ticket outside the place he iced that chick and later he goes home and teens mom is there and wants revenge for her "innocent" son
she caps himand sez she iced macy and he counter shots her with his dfirearm
conceal and carry saves lives
math later gets outta the hosputaL AND driver drives him saying shaved head is out and teen is gonna get the needle if the loawres win
then the bikers come for him and he stops and they talk about him capping thew clients mother
biker sez his guy got caught with 50 kee lows and they owe him for helping him and he sez he'd do it for free
later to driver ther bikers are rpeat custyomers an dhe';d get em next time
the end
that was pretty good
mathew mcd0ng is good ast being sleazy but not evil
good twists and surpirzes and logic
good use of showing how tough it is for lawyers
i watch a lot of law ands order and this was a good twist
its ike 2 hours without adds but goes by at a good pace
dont drag and has good style
glad i saw it
its a solid legal film
and just like a time to kill; mathew mcarea is defending a guy who did it and finds a loophole
for The Lincolon Lawyer 2 i want it to be about ther trial about the guy fronm the 1st movie but thanks to evidence being hishandled, he is seeming to go free, and with the bikers beating him up, he's shown that mathew was against him. and mathew has to help them from the shadows to get the case back on track. its also a point and click adventure on sega cd, tg16 cd, panasonic 3D0 and Phillips CDi where you play as the lawyer and gotta find the clues by talking to people and choosing the right option
