The Lincoln Lawyer
2011 · 1h 59m · Crime, Drama, Thriller
Watch it tonight—this is a slick, twisty legal thriller with a killer premise (a defense attorney working out of his car) that actually delivers. Mickey Rourke and Matthew McConaughey carry the tension beautifully, and the plot's got enough surprises to keep you hooked without demanding your full attention.
Plot
Mick Haller is a charismatic defense attorney who does business out of his Lincoln Continental sedan. Mick spends most of his time defending petty crooks and other bottom-feeders, so it comes as quite a surprise when he lands the case of a lifetime: defending a Beverly Hills playboy who is accused of attempted murder. However, what Mick initially thinks is an open-and-shut case with a big monetary reward develops into something more sinister.
