Product Description:
Powerful thriller about a former civil rights attorney and his idealistic young associate who re-open an eight year old murder case. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 05/13/2008 Starring: James Woods Robert Downey Jr Run time: 103 minutes Rating: R Director: Joseph Ruben

Amazon.com:
Eddie Dodd (James Woods) is a former '60s radical lawyer who now spends his time cynically defending drug dealers for the big bucks. But an idealistic young protégé (Robert Downey Jr.) convinces him to take one case from the heart: a young Korean immigrant unjustly accused in a gang slaying. Woods (complete with add-on ponytail) fairly hums with energy once he gets cooking here. Playing the been-there-done-that mentor--not to mention legal gadfly--gives Woods plenty of opportunity to run off at the mouth with spicy one-liners and zingers. But it also allows him to do some real acting, capturing Eddie's denial and sense of disappointment in himself. Plus his vehicle is a not-too-shabby mystery by thrillmeister director Joseph Ruben (Sleeping with the Enemy). --Marshall Fine
