It's nice to see McConaughey getting relatively serious instead of coasting through yet another witless romcom, with or without Kate Hudson. April 1, 2011 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

The film does take some predictable turns - even with its "surprise" twist - but it's a perfectly enjoyable time killer. March 31, 2011 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

We don't ask much of our legal thrillers beyond a twisty plot and a good villain to watch go down, and Brad Furman's methodical thriller doesn't bother offering much more than that. September 11, 2020 | Rating: 5.9/10 | Full Review…
