Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential video:
The exceptionally fine cast--Susan Sarandon, Tommy Lee Jones, J.T. Walsh, Mary-Louise Parker, Anthony Edwards, William H. Macy, Anthony LaPaglia, Ossie Davis, and Brad Renfro--goes a long way toward making The Client one of the more solidly enjoyable screen adaptations of a John Grisham southern gothic legal thriller. Teen-hearthrob Renfro is a natural, playing a kid whose life is in jeopardy after he witnesses the death of a Mob lawyer. Susan Sarandon is the attorney who decides to look after the boy; nobody can match her when it comes to playing strong and protective maternal figures (Thelma and Louise, Lorenzo's Oil, Dead Man Walking). Sarandon won her fourth Oscar nomination as best actress for this role, before finally winning the following year for Dead Man Walking. Author Grisham was so impressed with former window dresser/fashion designer/screenwriter-turned-director Joel Schumacher's work on this movie that he later asked him to direct A Time to Kill. --Jim Emerson

A young boy witnesses the suicide of a lawyer whose client is in the mob, and a female attorney tries to protect him. This movie is so incredibly amazing. After having read both the both and watched the movie, I can say this is the best adaptation from movie to book I have ever seen. The casting was right on the mark, see this movie you won't be disappointed.

While sometimes verging on caricature, the film comes through with an exciting story , well told. I wouldn't call it realistic; rather as Raymond Chandler said of his "gritty" stories of Bay City, California, and environs, they are romances, not sociology. From its earliest moments, one knows that this kid is in trouble, the question is what happens to him once the law and the killers know he has information helpful to the first, damning to the second. Tommy Lee Jones, as the ambitious U.S. Attorney ... Read More

How can you stand a movie in which a 12 year old boy is played as smarter than all the adults? That's what you're expected to believe here, despite an all-star cast which should have been a lot better. The script is cliche ridden, and the plot is a bore: kid gets chased by cops and mafia as they try to close in on a dead body's whereabouts. ZZZzzzzz. The reads more like Huck Finn than John Grisham. Don't waste your time.

Good Plot. The Child actor is talented. I like the package and fast service too.

Newly discovered Brad Renfro gives a stunningly believable performance that matches those of Sarandon and Jones...everyone comes to the plate with just the right amount of professionalism and the film goes 'over the top' in all catagories. I find Brad Renfro's first six films where he carries more of a lead role as a 'coming-of-age' preteen/teen to be some of his best work - how sad that his untimely death prevents us from witnessing his certain transformation into an older, seasoned actor.
