Although I had reservations about this flick, it turned out
to be good. Michael Douglas and his adversary Jesse Metcalfe showed like a good combination, sort of teacher and apprentice thing going on. Jesse Metcalfe is news reporter that suspects successful lawyer (Douglas) of tampering with evidence. In order to prove that he is guilty he frames himself for murder, but he did not count that his target will fight back. Movie has a certain TV flick thing going on, like some two part show that you see on Saturday and Sunday, but big names and great production values make up for that. Do not expect some masterpiece out of this, but a decent trial thriller. Especially the end, enjoy.
