This movie is not for everyone. If you like mystery thrillers like Perry Mason or Matlock you will settle into the story comfortably right from the beginning.
My sister who lives in Washington, D.C. could relate to the fact that the scene takes place in a bustling London food market similar to their Eastern Market.
It leaves me thinking, how could a thing like a terrorist explosion attack happen in a place like that.
While some beautiful scenes of London were shown there was a great deal of panic and confusion going on.
The cast was well selected, especially the two main characters fighting to expose the truth as to who was responsible for the bombing and what part the British government played in all the suspense and intrigue as the country prepared for one of the most profiled trials in British history. The British justice system is quite different from ours,, they had more than one lawyer representing the accused...some secret private court sessions (at times wearing wigs)
A lot going on, closed circuit cameras everywhere, government surveillance,close friends spying on each other, secret meetings, closed court hearings with no justice. The two lawyers busy from beginning to end fighting for the system, fighting against the system, they find out that they are being set up. They are fighting for their lives protecting themselves and their witnesses because their lives are in danger.
We pretty much knew who the bad guys were but as in some British movies you don't always get what they are trying to tell you all the time…this was one of those times.
The acting was well done but I don't think we should look for any awards for this one.
