Based on the novel by Michael Connelly -- the first in a franchise -- this one has crisper dialogue than most [legal thrillers].

[Amy] Ryan continues to be one of our best supporting actresses, one who shines but doesn't need to steal scenes.

This critic recommends this idiosyncratic film -- as long as you aren't too bothered by the sight of men getting the life beaten out of them.

This Arthur closely tracks the plot of the original, but it has a heart of its own.

The bigger problem is that the central character of [Mary] Surratt, as pictured here, is completely unengaging.

While they've produced a competently made film, they haven't pulled off a miracle. Atlas Shrugged is much as you'd expect.

One gets the sense, watching this predictable but dazzling film, that we all lost something when the circus became safer, but less thrilling.

Do we really need a fifth movie filled with car races, car chases and car crashes? Of course not. But then, we also don't need the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren or the Autobahn. But they add an awfully lot of fun to our short, brutal lives.
