This film is about a street wise lawyer who defends a rich young man accused of rape and battery.
"The Lincoln Lawyer" is a great thriller. The plot keeps you guessing all the way through, did that pretty boy really commit that atrocious crime. Just when you think you have figured it out, things get complicated again. The well kept suspense, together with a twist at the end keeps me glued to the screen. It is a change for Matthew McConaughey to play a serious character, and he does it well. Maybe it is a sign that he is changing the types of roles he play, into a more mature and challenging direction.
