The Client

Let's get something straight before I got too far here. There are two people out there whos names I generally use as some kind of insult or derision, as if being connected with them is an indicator of some inborn evil that will some day sprout to devour nations. those two people are Jerry Bruckheimer and John Grisham. Maybe this is just because they lose more money into their respective couches than I usually see in a year. There, the foreplay is over.
This actually wasn't a bad movie, as a movie. It had some good moments, and Susan Serandon and Tommy Lee Jones are (almost) always entertaining or at least interesting. Beyond that it's comfortably predictable. Everything feels safe, nothing really catches you by surprise. you know what's going to happen. Maybe not all the particulars of how it's going to happen, but you know what is ultimately going to result from all the plot "twists".
