Edgar Cochran ✝️’s review published on Letterboxd:
Engrossing, greatly written courtroom drama that humorously revives the chauvinism of 50 Cent with a song I sang every day for 4 years since I was 12 back in 2002 because it made you cool at high school. Yes, we all have dark pasts, but under Trier’s and Harari’s pen, the pasts are not revealed, nor the circumstances, and the ambiguity of the human condition combined with our axiomatic evil state results in a lack of trust that adds another layer to our condition of being a self-predatory species. Hüller shines for the second time this year with a tremendous versatility, but the law and forensic insight is 100% by the books, elongating the running time to a degree it outstays its welcome and reducing rewatch value. Even Kurosawa did better out of his comfort zone with The Bad Sleep Well (1960) and the focus was police corruption!
Yes, although the Palme d’Or is questionable, the Palm Dog isn’t!
75/100
