An absolutely astonishing work full of ethical or moral dilemmas in each and every minute of almost two hours movie. It pictures the why those judges that are good people goes sarcastic or looks 20 years older than they actually are. Bravo Emma Thompson !!!

Incredible performances by Emma Thompson, Fionn Whitehead and Stanley Tucci. Such a tragic story and moral dilemma.

Emma Thompson is extraordinary as always but the movie feels like two stories brought clumsily together. Confused.

Not the film I expected; it goes beyond courtroom drama to something a little more bizarre, and yet quite fascinating. Thompson is superb, as is Whitehead, and the film itself is solid. It should have gone a little deeper with the themes it presents, but perhaps the novel the film is based on explores further.
