The Whole Truth stars Keanu Reeves as Defense attorney Richard Ramsay, plus Renee Zellweger and her new face, teamign up as his widowed friend, Loretta Lassiter, and he takes on her personal case that he will keep her son Mike (Gabriel Basso) out of prison. Charged with murdering his father, Mike initially confesses to the crime, but as the trial proceeds, chilling evidence about the kind of man that Boone Lassiter (Jim Belushi) really was comes to light. While Ramsay uses the evidence to get his client acquitted, his new colleague Janelle (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) tries to dig deeper – and begins to realize that the whole truth is something she alone can uncover.
Directed by Courtney Hunt, I can’t say I was gripped by this legal thriller, as it had little in the way of thrills, but if it’s your bag, then The Whole Truth is out in the US on October 21st, but as of yet, there’s no UK release date.
