Love it and I would give it a 10.
Why I don't have it already is prob. because it pops up often enough on the movie channels.
I love how clever it is at how Vinny uses clever courtroom stratagies to beat the DA in proving the look a likes with a similar car are innocent.
Kinda like Columbo in reverse.
We know they didn't do it but how will it be proven or shown to everyone else they didn't?
Other things I liked was his battle with the judge over his clothes and mannerisms and the sorta animal rights message against hunting as well as the subplots of him trying to sleep, (Not until a prison riot which is as noisy as NYC) and them dealing with the locals plus that menu in the first diner!
Did you ever notice how when the sheriff retakes the stand after Vinny calls him the judge reminds him he is still under oath and he says, "On a hunch I checked this out."
It was a tip by Vinny!
A small lie that may not matter but still something I heard.
On the subject of crime movies…
Check out Zodiac
Based on a true crime of a serial killer that terrorized San Freakpsycho area in the late 60's/early 70's.
Dirty Harry was based on this case.

I agree with everything you said. It's quite good. I should rewatch it one day. Okay, will check out Zodiac; that's an interesting case as well. While watching Jack the Ripper with Michael Caine, I was thinking of that one, too.

I have been re-watching parts of Zodiac here and there since it showed up again on cable.
Not only for how good it is but also to pick up on things that I previously missed.
Such as how they showed the Zodiac claiming he did other murders that he actually did not do.
I look forward to your review and perhaps some more discussions on it.

I noticed another account from 10 years ago that was from IMDb with a link to movie reviews.
It was two names that I can't remember.
Was that you previously?

Yes, I tried to delete them using the old handle but couldn't access it anymore.
