CriticsCritics: 68
AudienceAudience: 6.8

A promising young lawyer accepts an irresistible offer from a prestigious firm, enjoying newfound wealth with his wife. After colleagues die and the FBI seeks his help, he becomes trapped between dangerous employers and federal investigators, forcing him to devise a careful plan to protect his future and expose the truth.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like intelligent, slow-burning legal thrillers with escalating tension, layered schemes, and strong performances; Not for you if you prefer fast-paced action, concise storytelling, or straightforward plots.
