Summary - Really Great 4.5 click to collapse contents 

Paul Giamatti stars in this powerful film about a middle-aged lawyer trying to make ends meet. Giamatti plays Mike, who participates in an unethical scheme to make money, since his law firm isn’t generating much business. However, rather than be just a cold hearted lawyer, we see Mike for what he really is; a family man with a good heart who spends his time coaching wrestling at the local high school. Along the way, he becomes involved with Kyle (Alex Shafer) and makes an impact in his life, as well as those related to Kyle.

A nice balance of conscience in the film, along with great acting and likeable characters that many of us can relate to, makes this film really great.
