I'm no Julia Roberta fan and I don't think this role suits her. She doesn't look the part of a dirt poor single Mom of three. Instead of being under stress, she looks like she stubbed her toe. However, the real- life story of a fledgling law clerk who stumbles on a huge corporate water pollution scheme, is a cracker. Director Steven Soderbergh gives a confident structure and pace. As the law firm chief Ed Masry, the chronically under- recognised British actor Albert Finney is amazing. It's great to see a lead lawyer so is a bit easily led but who also knows the law and who comes to pay attention to Erin's project.
