Avvocato di difesa

For those of us who like lawyer/police/detective stories, this was perfect. I couldn't stop watching, and very tempted to give it an even better star rating ... (I may come back and change it, but I'm generally stingy in that area).

In general, anything I've read or seen by Michael Connelly has been very good.

Don't understand why there are some bad reviews. Can't wait for more Lincoln Lawyer series.

I have to say I really had a good time watching The Lincoln Lawyer. It's about a down on his luck lawyer named Mickey Haller (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo) who takes over a successful practice after the lawyer in charge is murdered and leaves his entire practice including all his clients to Haller. Haller mostly world out of his Lincoln town car (hence why he's called The Lincoln Lawyer). He takes on all Tyler's of cases, some big some small. Even though some of it's unbelievable, you'll still have fun watching this. This show did so well that it was quickly renewed for season 2. Season 2 just came out and so far it's just as good, if not better, than the first.

This is an enjoyable first season of the show that's based on Michael Connelly's novels. The tandem of David Kelley and Ted Humphrey succeeds in bringing to the screen the gritty story of smart defense lawyer Mickey Haller, his associates and family.

The viewer identifies with the ups and downs of Haller's legal career. But one is impressed by his passion for the law and genuine concern for his clients. The movie is able to capture his deep humanity amidst his flaws. Aside from Haller, all the other major characters are relatable: Cisco, Lorna, Maggie, Trevor Elliott, Hayley and even detective Griggs.

The plot lines are well-conceived and quite entertaining. The twists pique the viewer's attention while the drama resonates. In particular, the way Haller is able to unravel the magic bullet, connecting one crime to another, and use it at trial is ingenious. Serious students of criminal law and procedure will definitely appreciate the law and the free tutorial it offers them.

Bring Season 2 on. We can't wait to find out more in the life of Haller and company.

Very bold to give Manuel Garcia-Rulfo the lead... and it seems that it's hard for a lot of folks to take in... but his soft approach does the job and he's a great fit for LA. It seems that the entire character development was a gamble... I think one that will pay off in the long run. I should give it a 7... but it gets a 9 to counter balance the folks who are just plain wrong. I finished the series in 3 sittings... liked it a lot.

Ok i just finished this show and i am still not understanding why people have given it low ratings. It deserves at least 8-8.5 for sure.

I was very skeptical about watching this because of low ratings and not so good reviews but i thought let's give a try to couple of episodes and then decide.

I end up watching 6 episodes in a go.

I have seen THE LINCOLN LAWYER movie and we all loved Matthew McConaughey so Manuel Garcia-Rulfo was looking like a wrong cast.

I think he is also one of the reasons not enough people are watching this show because he is not a big name but he is actually good as The Lincoln Lawyer.

I liked his acting and surely will check out his other work as i also don't know him much.

And about the show it has all the ingredients for a crime thriller drama.

The acting,the pacing of the show and the production everything is good.

If you like shows like BOSCH or other court-room shows give it a try and you will end up liking it.

Waiting for the 2nd season.

Let's hope Netflix won't cancel it.

It deserves more attention & love than it's getting.

Some movies and shows get unnecessary hate and this show is one of them.
