I didn't like "The Client" any better the second time I saw
it than I did the first. Which is to say I hated it.
A teenage boy (Brad Renfro, who, despite teen magazines raving
about him, does not seem cute to me) sneaks his little brother
out into the woods. Why? So he can teach little brother to
smoke of course. After witnessing a murder in the woods, their
trailer eventually goes up in smoke and little brother winds
up in a coma. Renfro's character is terrified to tell exactly
what he saw and a district attorney (Susan Sarandon) desperately
attempts to get it out of him.
Even if you're a John Grisham fan, don't rent this. I can't
believe Grisham let them do this to his brilliant book.
My rating: 2 stars
Rating: PG-13
