Think movies that made you want to be a lawyer. One that might get someone interested in pursuing a law degree. Granted it's Hollywood so you don't see all the after hours work, paper work, continuous education, and you rarely if ever get a "you can't handle the truth" moment
John Gresham movies - meh
My Cousin Vinny - fun
Reversal of Fortune - Jeremy Irons is fantastic
Scott Turow movies are pretty good.

OP mentioned the quote, but I'll formally advocate for A Few Good Men. I initially came in to recommend devils advocate.

From the perspective of a lawyer:

  • The Verdict
  • A Few Good Men
  • My Cousin Vinny
In no particular order. So many "law" movies and tv shows are unwatchable if you're an attorney.

Honestly, Clueless.

Cher's dad was loaded, $500/hr sounded like a good gig early in the 90s.

That's how I feel about medical dramas
The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But, it's still on the list.

Not a movie, but Jack McCoy (Sam Watterson) from the OG version of Law and Order is pretty awesome.

If there's a movie where all lawyers suffer humiliation, poverty and then death, then that one.

I remember the audience cheered when the lawyer was gobbled up by the T-Rex. I was 12. I didn't get the joke until much later.
