Synopsis
In the gripping thriller “The Lincoln Lawyer,” Matthew
McConaughey stars as Michael “Mick” Haller, a slick, charismatic
Los Angeles criminal defense attorney who operates out of the back
of his Lincoln Continental sedan.
Having spent most of his career defending petty, gutter-variety
criminals, Mick unexpectedly lands the case of a lifetime: defending
a rich Beverly Hills playboy (Ryan Phillippe) who is accused of
attempted murder.
However, what initially appears to be a straightforward case with a
big money pay-off swiftly develops into a deadly match between two
masters of manipulation and a crisis of conscience for Haller.
