Description

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?"

Undoubtfully, cinematography has been my passion since a very young age. Even now, watching a new movie or series always prompts me to ask a lot of questions to the author. Thus, every little essay about a title is definitely not a spoiler, but rather an attempt to explore the idea.

Directed by Louis Leterrier and filmed on screenplay written by Ed Solomon, Boaz Yakinand Edward Ricourt, Now You See Me follows a strange sequence of events centered on weird show group of magicians named The Four Horsemen. Their show features neither rabbits out of top hat nor playing cards out of sleeves. There is something much more valued by audience in modern world than these old fashioned tricks, and The Four Horsemen have a proposition for this demand. Meet their tricks: a real bank robbery, a million dollars heist, a white collar blackmailing. How it's possible to be real? The question that demands some non-magic answers, at least such question has FBI – and these guys will play hard to get an answer. The stakes are raising when magic hunters get to know that weird magicians have some plan to shock the audience with their next incredibly risky yet audacious robbery has ever happened in the history of FBI, the robbery that probably will occupy number one in The Hall of Fame of Robberies, if such ever existed. Unfortunately, the attempts of FBI agents to discover what are really standing behind the magic tricks break on their suspiciousness to each other. Finally, as the day X comes closer they decide to ask for help from world most known magic mythbusters, with ambiguous reputation Thaddeus (played by Morgan Freeman). The greatest crime of the century is about to happen, however neither FBI agents, not Thaddeus are approached a step closer to unlock the puzzle of The Four Horsemen's riddle. What is this- a double-cross of one agent, Thaddeus' betrayal or … real magic? Besides the twisted plot we have great pleasure to watch an unparalleled play of actors. Besides abovementioned Morgan Freeman, Now You See Me stars some truly superior actors: Dave Franco (Warm Bodies, 21 Jump Street, Fright Night), Isla Fisher (Desperados, The Great Gatsby, Rise of the Guardians, Bachelorette) and Jesse Eisenberg (To Rome with Love, 30 Minutes or Less, The Social Network.)
