The Client

Young Mark Sway has witnessed a suicide of a mafia lawyer, but knows more than he should when that man tells him about a hidden body. The boy hires an attorney for just a dollar, seriously. This attorney just so happens to be a woman, a woman named Regina who ends up having to protect him and herself. After all, he does need protection for the mob family who's after him.

The film itself is not as satisfying as it could have been, but is still worth watching. Mark Sway is not the kind of boy who gets scared so easily, he's tough and acts as if he knows the world. Yes, he's in serious jeopardy of course, but doesn't always act like it. That is his character. Brad Renfro plays Mark Sway, and does a good job with staying as him. His lawyer Susan who is played by Susan Sarandon also does a good job with staying into character, she has children of her own but they were taken into their father's hands due to her abuse in acohol. However, she has been sober for quite a few years and hates the fact that her children do not live with her. That is why she treats Mark Sway as if he is her own child, she's the perfect lawyer and he knows it. Once again, The Client is not as great as it could have been, but it is still a worthy view.
