The Lincoln Lawyer

Ok i just finished this show and i am still not understanding why people have given it low ratings. It deserves at least 8-8.5 for sure.

I was very skeptical about watching this because of low ratings and not so good reviews but i thought let's give a try to couple of episodes and then decide.

I end up watching 6 episodes in a go.

I have seen THE LINCOLN LAWYER movie and we all loved Matthew McConaughey so Manuel Garcia-Rulfo was looking like a wrong cast.

I think he is also one of the reasons not enough people are watching this show because he is not a big name but he is actually good as The Lincoln Lawyer.

I liked his acting and surely will check out his other work as i also don't know him much.

And about the show it has all the ingredients for a crime thriller drama.

The acting,the pacing of the show and the production everything is good.

If you like shows like BOSCH or other court-room shows give it a try and you will end up liking it.

Waiting for the 2nd season.

Let's hope Netflix won't cancel it.

It deserves more attention & love than it's getting.

Some movies and shows get unnecessary hate and this show is one of them.

A drug rehabilitated lawyer with two ex-wives a daughter and penchant for cars is thrust front-and-centre into a high profile case following the death of a friend. This comes complete with a practice and more secondary cases than he can cope with.

This intriguing premise sets up an opportunity-filled backdrop for a legal procedural series. The show takes this, adds a strong cast, well crafted and delivered dialogue and an interesting plot and runs with it at a good pace.

Some cinematography choices are awkward, particularly the shots with variable focus and some orange casts, though overall it functions as required. Mickey's driver, Izzy is often used as a plot explanation device, but despite being obvious, feels natural and in keeping with the storytelling.

This is end-to-end engaging, entertaining and enjoyable - highly recommended.

I love this series and I also love the books, but they are not the same Mickey Haller. The series lawyer is your typical wealthy guy. Hard to relate. I like the guy who works out of his car, not a fancy office he was bequeathed. That said, the characters come alive. Don't get me wrong, I like the series but it's not true to Connelly's work. I'm quite annoyed that my review needs more "characters." Why can't I write a brief review?

So, OK, I LOVE Michael Connelly and all of his books. I have had a major crush on Harry Bosch, but I'd be a puddle of goo for Mickey Haller , as portrayed here. Oh my.

For those of us who like lawyer/police/detective stories, this was perfect. I couldn't stop watching, and very tempted to give it an even better star rating ... (I may come back and change it, but I'm generally stingy in that area).

In general, anything I've read or seen by Michael Connelly has been very good.

Don't understand why there are some bad reviews. Can't wait for more Lincoln Lawyer series.

I have to say I really had a good time watching The Lincoln Lawyer. It's about a down on his luck lawyer named Mickey Haller (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo) who takes over a successful practice after the lawyer in charge is murdered and leaves his entire practice including all his clients to Haller. Haller mostly world out of his Lincoln town car (hence why he's called The Lincoln Lawyer). He takes on all Tyler's of cases, some big some small. Even though some of it's unbelievable, you'll still have fun watching this. This show did so well that it was quickly renewed for season 2. Season 2 just came out and so far it's just as good, if not better, than the first.
