 Review: The Devil's Advocate
The Devil's Advocate certainly has problems, chief of which is the subtlety thing, but Pacino's performance is so fun to watch that it eclipses the most significant of them.
Kevin's approach to a trial isn't that it's a forum for justice, but a game to be won or lost -- and he is willing to do anything for victory, even if he knows that his client is guilty (the official term for this kind of person is a "sleazeball").
The Devil's Advocate's protagonist is Kevin Lomax (Keanu Reeves), a Florida prosecutor-turned-defense attorney who has never lost in more than 60 cases.

Golub, a Republican turned Democrat, told The New York Sun he agrees the office appears worthy of abolition, but only because the incumbent, Betsy Gotbaum - who is a friend of ours and is also seeking the Democratic nomination - has done little with it.
Because taxes "hurt the economy" and the "creation of jobs," Dr. Golub said he would press for the city to eliminate the commercial rent tax, reduce the corporate business tax, and cut the sales tax.
She has championed a few pet projects such as hot meals for the elderly, which, however worthy, Dr. Golub told the Sun, don't justify the $3 million a year in taxpayers' dollars the office consumes.
