Critics Sentiment
Arthur declares Fleming guilty, courtroom is out of order speech
Ralph Agee kills himself thirty minutes after sentencing
The film plunges from the helicopter ride comedy high to devastating tragedy as both McCullaugh and Agee meet tragic ends
The film builds audience appreciation through strong character work and memorable comedic moments like the helicopter ride, then devastates viewers with tragic client deaths before culminating in Pacino's universally praised courtroom explosion. Critics consistently highlighted the powerful final act while noting the film's scattered middle sections and dated elements.
