One of the must-watch Korean movies, the story and plot are enigmatic and full of question marks.
Contains a plot twist where the audience is invited to guess who is right! Extraordinary!

The Client is an amazing movie, nice direction, very good actors, one of the rarest thrillers I have ever seen with an awesome climax and background story. Totally you will not regret a minute watching it.
Heh... Am I the ONLY one who saw this...? : )
Seriously though, this was a very good film; nothing legendary by any means, but very well done, with excellent acting, and a good, involving story. There is nothing overtly stylish or particularly outstanding that would set this apart as way above other good Legal Thrillers, but it is competently done in every way and directed very well.
Just ONE tiny little thing that I couldn't help but notice because I happen to be an EXTREMELY avid fan of this other film, but I kind of smiled because there was just ONE brief scene shown towards the latter part of the film that was lifted almost LINE FOR LINE from the TRAGICALLY underrated film 'FROM THE HIP' (1987) starring a most excellent and delightful Judd Nelson in one of his best roles ever, not to mention an absolutely CHILLING performance by John Hurt. Heh, I'm sitting here thinking, 'These sly B@stards... I wonder if anyone will actually know where this is from...?'
So, as long as you don't mind reading subtitles and you DO like good Courtroom Drama and films with interesting Police investigations, then you should really enjoy this movie.

I love thrillers and this is one of the best. If you love to watch thrillers based on murder cases in trial, you will love this. The movie starts with the murder and the police catch the husband of the victim as the killer. They don't, however, have the body, and she is suspected to being killed. A young precipitous lawyer takes the case in favor of the killer. The move rolls through court room and internecine fight between rival lawyers. However, they missed some important issues in the case. One, what happened to the CCTV video? Two, why the prosecution didn't pursue other possible killers? Three, some scenes didn't sync well like the arrest in the highway. Nevertheless, the climax has an anti-climax and that makes you thrilled. Besides, the final comment by the rival lawyer was superb: "He didn't look back!" One could even make a Sherlock Holmes logical reasoning based on that. In short, if you are into thriller and mystery movies, please watch this.
The movie has its moments, driving the story together. It's a good balance of drama and thriller, keeps you into glue.
