Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Dotbankey A lot of fun.

Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Autumn Vanderwood John Carroll Lynch,Jennifer Finnigan and Kimberly Elise give very good performances making this show watchable. However,the show failed to capture my attention.The way every case unraveled was somewhat mundane. I do recall some episodes that had me quite glued to the screen but overall most of them didn't intrigue me as much as I had hoped. Most importantly there are some major flaws in terms of law.It doesn't represent a realistic way of how the justice system works and that makes the show feel like a soap opera.If you can move past this I believe you will like watching it.Also,I believe that they could have used some better actors in some cases. Especially when it had to do with roles of the bad guys. I would recommend this show to anyone who is into crime related shows because after all it's a nice show to watch but I would feel obligated to inform them that it is nothing special.It's that type of show that you watch while you wait for better shows you like to release new episodes.Sort of like a pastime activity.

iterativeend "Close to home" follows the trials of a Public attorney who seems to have a near perfect record. That is true for all court room drams on TV, but one aspect that i felt that could differentiate between this and others like LA Law or Boston legal is that the star does not have an ivy league education to shove in our face. No, they decided to differentiate this show by making the attorney win even when she is awful at her job.I haven't seen all the episodes but in almost all the episodes I've watched, she does a horrible job proving her case even when she has all the evidence to back her up. Great court-room dramas have lawyers brilliantly winning their cases with little evidence. The good ones try to make us believe that with luck, what was shown could actually happen. But in this show, even when the opposing attorney was great and does a great job, the public attorney always wins.

thegreatswan I love made-in-US-legal-dramas, that's a fact. Law and Order, CSI, even Crossing Jordan... I use to watch them while writing my criminal stories, it kinda makes me in the right mood. But this one ? Oh dear. And I can't say I didn't give it a try. I saw about a dozen episodes, but when the credits rolled, it was always the same thought going through my mind : "I should have watch something else." And then, one night, after two minutes of this show, I switched channels, making up my mind on a DVD instead.The stories are quite decent, actually, but the main characters ? Come on ! Usually, in such dramas, defense lawyers are "les emmerdeurs" (roughly translate : "Pain in the a**"), but here, it's quite the opposite. I can't find even one of the prosecutors nice and friendly. Okay, that's not their job to be nice and friendly, but only with the criminal, alright ? Annabeth has "un je ne sais quoi", a little something which bores me a lot : to be frank, I'd like to shush her anytime she opens her mouth. And about Maureen, it's even worse. Two real big ice queens, both as warm as winter in the North Pole !So, if you're a fan, good for you. But Bruckheimer's productions have way better shows than this one.

annastaciacollins I originally decided to watch this show because my favorite actor Plays Jack Chase. but then i noticed that the show is well written and i hope it is successful because Christian Kane and his cast mates deserve a success."Close To Home" is a brilliantly written show with emotion and i love how Anabeth goes with her heart to close the case and you realized that each case involves a house wife or a woman. something Anabeth can get emotional about. Christian Kane is a wonderful actor and he has been in several movies and played Ryan Leggett in the Short Lived Series "Fame LA" in 1997. i also have a fan list for Christian Kane on Yahoo Groups.Melissa
