The Lincoln Lawyer

The Lincoln Lawyer

“This case is a dangerous game of life and death.”

March 17, 2011R1h 59mTMDB ★ 7.2

Mick Haller is a charismatic defense attorney who does business out of his Lincoln Continental sedan. Mick spends most of his time defending petty crooks and other bottom-feeders, so it comes as quite a surprise when he lands the case of a lifetime: defending a Beverly Hills playboy who is accused of attempted murder. However, what Mick initially thinks is an open-and-shut case with a big monetary reward develops into something more sinister.

Source: TMDB. Domestic/international split (~48/52, genre-typical) and the opening-weekend figure (35% of the domestic run, typical for Crime) are MoviesRankd estimates. Profit is gross revenue minus production budget and excludes marketing — studios typically need ~2–2.5× budget to break even.
