DVD Reviews of The Client (Keep Case Packaging)
DVD Review: A little bit incredible...
Summary: 3 Stars
Generally, I enjoy the movies made from Grisham's novels--suspenseful thrillers. This one, ehh, just OK. The mystery element wasn't that strong, for one thing--where's the body buried--whoop tee do. And the kid, well....he's one AWFULLY SMART kid with a highly clever, quick-thinking wit for the son of a trailer-trash mom. Just a little incredible how one minute he's just a kid who's in big trouble, and the next minute, he's the hero of the day, making everybody else look stupid--lol. Entertaining, I guess but... And how exactly did he fake his illness that got him sent to the hospital? I guess I missed that.
I never read the book, so I can't say whether or not this was just a bad adaptation of Grisham's novel to the big screen, but I just wasn't too impressed by it. The characters are well portrayed and acted--no complaints there--just not a lot of action or mystery to offset the farfetched parts of it.

Description of The Client (Keep Case Packaging)
CLIENT - DVD MovieThe exceptionally fine cast--Susan Sarandon, Tommy Lee Jones, J.T. Walsh, Mary-Louise Parker, Anthony Edwards, William H. Macy, Anthony LaPaglia, Ossie Davis, and Brad Renfro--goes a long way toward making The Client one of the more solidly enjoyable screen adaptations of a John Grisham southern gothic legal thriller. Teen-hearthrob Renfro is a natural, playing a kid whose life is in jeopardy after he witnesses the death of a Mob lawyer. Susan Sarandon is the attorney who decides to look after the boy; nobody can match her when it comes to playing strong and protective maternal figures (Thelma and Louise, Lorenzo's Oil, Dead Man Walking). Sarandon won her fourth Oscar nomination as best actress for this role, before finally winning the following year for Dead Man Walking. Author Grisham was so impressed with former window dresser/fashion designer/screenwriter-turned-director Joel Schumacher's work on this movie that he later asked him to direct A Time to Kill. --Jim Emerson
