Plot summary
Michael Trainer is a lawyer at the center of a trial in which a for-profit Foster care agency puts a known sex offender into the same foster home as his young client Jamal, with catastrophic results. Michael, a successful litigator with a long career in protecting corporate clients, has been blinded from recognizing the real damage they can cause. He wants nothing to do with Jamal's case until a Judge forces him to accept it. Initially he sees Jamal, as a thuggish African American youth trying to get a piece of corporate profits. But when Jamal refuses to settle the case for any amount of money, Michael begins his representation in earnest. As their work together reveals the horrifying depth of the corrupt and abusive for-profit Foster care agency, Michael is transformed from reluctant defender to fierce warrior in the battle for justice.

A bit slow, but surprisingly touching, and not bored! Really should watch it!
Boring film, terrible acting.
This film was so boring I fell asleep twice. The acting is terrible and almost laughable. The Director obviously have no comprehension on making films or how to direct actors. YAWN
Wonderfully uplifting and satisfying
"Three-piece" and "thug" deliver powerful performances in this gem of a story.
This has a story's obligatory conflict ramped up beyond the limits of endurance. Undeserved misfortune meets callous indifference, corporate greed and government incompetence.
Thankfully, this movie doesn't preach at its audience. It doesn't have to. The evil is obvious, and the good is, too. But now for my own soap box...
This movie is a commentary on the broken nature of our modern society -- people increasingly turning to government and corporations to offload their own responsibility. But in the end, we end up less free. This is because individual freedom demands us to be responsible. Without that responsibility, we lose everything.
Big, Publicly-Traded Corporations are all evil, by definition. Both the Left and the Right don't understand this, except perhaps for a very few. They have a fiduciary duty to be egregiously selfish, and the Antagonist in this movie is no different. Ironically, such Big Centralized power in corporations loves Big Centralized power in government, and do their best to betray their clients for more profit. Leftist Capitalism is naked in this movie for all the world to see. Liars, betrayers and selfish to the bone. And such corporations hate Free Market Capitalism, taking over the government to protect their industry advantages and to hide their corruption. This movie even shows the lawyer for the Big Publicly-Traded Corporation attacking the small, Free Market Capitalist family farm for making their own profit. Profit is never bad; what a company does with that profit can be pure evil, or divine good. Publicly-traded corporations don't have a choice; privately-owned corporations do.
We need more movies like this to help wake people up.
