The Devil's Advocate (1997)


You would be forgiven for giving up on this movie after its dire opening scenes of wooden acting and leaden courtroom drama but the movie starring Keanu Reeves as a hotshot small-town lawyer who finds himself in New York living the high life under the tutelage of Al Pacino's nefarious law firm boss develops into a satisfying mystery thriller that draws parallels between courtroom right and wrong, and heaven and hell, and is at times reminiscent of Rosemary's Baby.
