The Lincoln Lawyer Movie Is Out Today!

And author and publisher are both ecstatic !

And Michael loves it! It's not often that we see a film based on a book get a full endorsement from the author. But Michael is completely enthusiastic about this movie. And he is not alone. Here are some of our favorite quotes from the many great reviews that have come in for the film.

"The Lincoln Lawyer is a don't-miss cinematic page-turner with enough twists to fill five movies. Matthew McConaughey gives the performance of his career as a slick criminal defense attorney who finds himself in a moral quandary ...Fans of the actor and crime novelist Michael Connelly should flock to theaters for this gripping whodunit and adult audiences looking for crackerjack entertainment will likely spread great word of mouth, making this a box office winner" - Pete Hammond, Box Office Magazine

"The Lincoln Lawyer aims high, assuming that its audience will be able to follow complex plotting and take delight in its twists and turns. It's a movie that stays one step ahead of the viewer - and pays off in the end." - Marshall Fine

"The Lincoln Lawyer onscreen is a slam-bang twister of a legal thriller, full of whiplash energy... a dynamite Matthew McConaughey gives his best performance in years... This is rock solid entertainment." - Peter Travers, Rolling Stone magazine

"Mickey is a scammer and a scoundrel and a striver in the finest cinematic tradition of Sidney Falco and Jerry Maguire. Adapted from Michael Connelly's bestselling book, The Lincoln Lawyer just may have the makings of a terrific franchise" - Washington Post
