Ratings and reviews

Mirren and Reynolds who would've thought? A brilliant story superbly crafted all-round. Intense in parts, emotionally confronting, but worth the journey.

Ryan Reynolds very credible portrayal as lawyer demonstrates his versatility as an actor. Based on true restoration story - the little guy vs nation.

Great character development. A poignant reflection on one of History's darkest chapters.. (All to easily repeated. )
