The Lincoln Lawyer (2011) is an film adaptation of Michael Connelly's novel written and published in 2005. The Lincoln Lawyer movie's plot is loosely based and showcases the life and job of criminal defense attorney Mickey Haller conducting his business from the backseat of the Lincoln Town Car driven by his formerly client who works off his legal fees as a Mickey Haller's driver. The movie centers on an unusual case of Louis Roulet, a Los Angeles real estate agent and a son of major businessman, who seems to be mistakenly accused in rape and attempt to murder his female "victim". Among the Mickey's cases of drug dealers, narco-barons and other wide-range "innocent" criminals, the Louis Roulet's defense seems to be an easy job of justification of innocent man. But this case starts an unpredictable chain of events immersing Haller in the deadly game with the one question arise: how to survive?"As it was said by Michael Connelly, who has written "The Lincoln Lawyer" novel: "A couple days ago I saw an unfinished cut of it and could not be happier…. Those who loved the book will love the movie, I think. Those who don't know the book will love it just the same." So, there is the case and the question for us to decide: can we trust Michael Connelly?"

Jason Statham now impersonates Parker, a professional thief with Robin Hood habits. His credo: not to steal from poor people and not to hurt innocent ones. And as it often happens in real life, goodness is punishable, especially when you are a thief (even if the best one). Parker's abettors start playing unclean game against him, finally stealing his heist and leaving Parker for dead. But something was wrong with these guys. May be they did know nothing about Jason Statham and his obsession for sophisticated revenge? It was miserable fault on their part. Parker has resurrected as rich Texan accompanied by his "canceled" victim, Leslie, both eager to spread fear, destruction and devastation around. It is a time to rue for Parker's ex friends. If an astonishing play of Jason Statham isn't enough reason to watch the movie, here is a surprise to change your mind: gorgeous Jennifer Lopez plays Leslie, and this couple Statham plus Lopez may be the only thing making the film worth to watch despite the Transporter-like plot.

Public Enemies is fair to compare with the cult Heat released fifteen years ago, but it seems that this time the Michael Mann jumped above the head, and it is not surprising as it seems at first glance. Mann manages to convert high-tech to high art, and that this film will be remembered after seventy years, as now, let's say, Dreyer's movies, as a major illustration of the key role of Mann in the world of cinema. And this is not only the matter of the form. Yes, Mann filmed first digital retro. And yes, the atmosphere of the thirties was recreated down to the dress models.

The film chronicles the harrowing ordeal of the crew and the efforts of the US Navy to rescue them.

High level of realism and plausible scenes of true life of the street gangs and the cops being in state of permanent war with each other are the bold line that is piercing the dramatic plot of End of Watch. The story about friendship between two police officers Taylor and Zavala. Officer Taylor is portrayed by Jake Gyllenhaal, whose identity has not necessarily to introduce. Everybody is familiar with him performing the leading roles in Source Code, Love and Other Drugs and Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Officer Zavala is played by Michael Peña, who may be less know to the mass audience, but you could distinctly remember him playing the second plan roles in such movies as The Lincoln Lawyer (Jesus Martinez), Tower Heist (Enrique Dev'Reaux) and 30:Minutes or Less (Chango). Although it's pertinent to say here that Michael was participating in some serious projects at the moment when End of Watch are coming the big screens: Tom Gianas's and Ross Shuman's animated comedy Hell & Back, David Soren's Turbo (animated, too) and biographical Chavez by Diego Luna. oing back to the movie storyline: both the plot and filming present the outlandish combination of frightening realism (all the footage was made by the handheld HD cameras and the street surveillance cameras) with courage of two brave cops patrolling the most dangerous places of the city.
