A Courtroom Drama That Misses Its Own Justice
The movie sets out to be a gripping courtroom drama with a strong central story - a woman's unexpected tragedy and her relentless fight for justice against a failing system. The premise holds great potential, and the cast delivers commendable performances. No actor feels out of place, and at times the natural dialogue adds to the realism.
However, the film's promise quickly fades due to poor storytelling and weak execution. The early thrilling tone is overshadowed by overly dramatic and sometimes unnecessary dialogues, which break the flow and dilute tension. Direction remains average throughout, failing to hold the narrative together. The cinematography is particularly disappointing; in a genre that thrives on intensity and sharp visuals, the bland camera work makes the courtroom scenes dull instead of gripping.
The climax, instead of delivering a punch, takes an awkward turn with an unnecessary fight sequence that feels both forced and tiring. Worse, it shifts the focus away from the film's core agenda. The abrupt ending leaves the audience unsatisfied, making the journey feel incomplete.
Overall, while the core idea is strong, the film's execution undermines its potential. If you are a die-hard fan of courtroom dramas, it may be worth a one-time watch. For others, this is a film better skipped.
