7/10
SPEAK CLEARLY FOR THE SAKE OF THE TYPIST
3 August 2018
Warning: Spoilers
After a terrorist bombing in London, Simon (James Lowe) and Claudia (Rebecca Hall) are appointed special defense attorneys for the accused (Denis Moschitto). After Simon has an untimely suicide Martin (Eric Bana) takes over his spot. His presence there is a violation of the rules as he and Claudia were once an item. As they investigate the case, they discover it wasn't a simple terrorist bombing. There are things which don't add up. They soon realize their lives are in danger.

This is a slightly twisty drama with a touch of court room drama and a little action tossed in. The film keeps you mentally engaged for the most part, but then dies at the end without a real climax. No Jack Nicholson saying, "You can't handle the truth," just an old distinguished man having breakfast calmly explaining the ways of the world.

Parental Guide: F-bombs. No sex or nudity. Did Rebecca Hall put on weight?
