Michael Clayton

A major law firm calls in its “fixer” after a senior lawyer suffers a breakdown during a high-stakes class action tied to a chemical company. As evidence suggests the company knew the danger all along, the situation spirals into danger for everyone involved.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy Michael Clayton if you like gritty legal thrillers with constant pressure and moral gray areas, and you can stick with a slow start; Not for you if you want a straightforward, flashy lawyer story, like Changing Lanes or Insomnia.
