Caught this recently.
Heading into it, I honestly knew nothing about it but for the ads.
I liked the story, and have always had a ton of respect for Idris Elba since The Wire (god I wish that entire series was about season 1!) and think he was good in it - though at times I found him harder to understand than normal - I cannot put my finger on it, almost like he was slipping in and out of an accent.
As always I enjoyed the rise more than the fall, and it was a good story. Sad about how the US justice system is portrayed, but perhaps that is the way it is.
I did not realize it was an Aaron Sorkin project - but as soon as his name flashed up on the screen during the credits it made total sense. It felt like one of his for sure.
7/10 for me.
