OK, get this: Affleck is a young hotshot attorney, Sam L. is a decent middle-class father. While both are rushing to extraordinarily important meetings, the two are involved in a minor fender-bender. Affleck is rude and dismissive to Jackson and promptly bails on the accident scene. Jackson is infuriated but notices a brown folder that Affleck has left behind.
CUT TO:
Affleck in a courtroom being berated by a judge for misplacing this crucial paperwork. Since he was a big jerk to Jackson, Affleck can't get his file back...and of course his clients are evil mafia types.
SO THEN:
These two seemingly sane men go about ruining each other's lives. You simply won't believe how farcical and overwrought this trailer is, plus (as my lengthy description clearly illustrates) the entire film looks like it's given away in the trailer. And I didn't even mention the sudden manic appearance of William Hurt screaming about "contracts and covenants".
But what a hoot! I will DEFINITELY be looking forward to this flick!
