Really? The trailer looked a little...you know, in your face. It was like it knew it was a gritty, jury/crime thriller twist-o-thon and so it was hamming it up as that sort of film...

Never saw it in the theaters. Didn't make much of an impression on me.

I really enjoyed it, though the ending was a bit too neat and sappy for my liking. Needed a bit more of an edgy finish.

Good movie I though. But a bit "dramatic."

Excelent movie. I saw it a month ago in DVD, and now i'm reading the book. But you've gotta wonder: why did they change the case from a tobacco industry case (book) to a gun industry case (movie)?

Part of the idea of the plot is that the case would be ground braking, but now that everyone and their cousins are suing the tobacco companies, and there have been lawsuits btween the states and the tobacco companies, its a "its been done" situation. To this date I have not heard of a gun comapny being held responsable for a gun related crime.

My guess is to avoid any comparisons to The Insider.
