An excellent film and a must watch. An estranged lawyer (Robert Downey Jr) meets his father (a judge) after many years during his mother’s funeral. They realise that their relationship has not improved. Just when the son is about to leave home, the father gets arrested for an accident. The case gets complicated and rest of the film is about how the son helps him in the case and how they re-connect. The films brilliance lies in telling a gripping story with the right emotions. All the characters have played the role to perfection and especially the lead stars. Robert Duvali deserves an Oscar for best supporting actor for playing the father who is a judge with ethics. At 2hr 20min, it is a pretty long film. Don’t miss it.
