Hard-to-top defamation of lawyers: the senior partner of Milton, Chadwich, Waters is Satan himself ("Law -- it's the new priesthood, baby!"), and his clients are culled exclusively from the vicious and the depraved. The only thing holding Al Pacino in check in this role is his limited time on screen. Stiff and stuffy Keanu Reeves is the John Grisham-esque yuppie, recruited from the Southern boondocks for the Big Show in the Big Apple, whose soul is at stake. The ultimate showdown between good and evil, or between cheese and ham, is too long in coming, and then it just won't quit. With Charlize Theron, Jeffrey Jones, Judith Ivey, Craig T. Nelson; directed by Taylor Hackford. (1997) — Duncan Shepherd
