This is why I love going to the theater!
I didn’t know what to expect going into “Puncture,” but what I found, surpassed even my most hopeful wishes for an evening at the movies. “Puncture” is a perfectly acted true-life story that still has me thinking about its message 3 days later. It was gripping from the opening credits and I was emotionally pulled in a number of directions. Chris Evans proved he can really act, not just dress up as a superhero and run around a big budgeted set. Mark Kassen was marvelous alongside him as his legal partner and the Houston backdrop made for an unlikely protagonist in and of itself. A story that needed to be shared and with tremendous talent. I only wish there were more films like “Puncture.” I encourage people to go see the film.

Ideals vs Corruption
Yes – this is a path well-trodden, but this one’s definitely worth a watch as you’ll see towards the end.

So we’re dealing with a couple of school friends who set up a legal practice together focussing mainly on ambulance chasing. They’re contacted by a nurse who was accidentally stabbed by a hypodermic needle in the course of her job and contracted HIV. The crux of the case is that hospitals collectively shunned a safety needle that could’ve prevented this and hundreds of thousands of similar accidents across the USA from happening. So open and shut case right? … enter corrupt healthcare suppliers and their top-notch legal team.

To complicate matters, one of the prosecuting lawyers has a serious drug habit. It seems the bipolar lifestyle the drugs provides actually fuels his legal brilliance … up to a point. However it doesn’t fly so well in the big leagues where it starts to undermine their image and jeopardise the case.

So it becomes a test of ethics and staying power against a backdrop of money worries, a campaign of dirty tricks and the lawyer’s drug problem.

These guys and their practice are really in no kind of shape to be in this fight so it’s hard to see any kind of positive outcome for them which makes it interesting.

This is the best performance I’ve seen from Chris Evans, but the other supporting actors were great too.

While scenes surrounding the drug-use are more whimsical, the bulk of it is filmed in a very grounded and unspectacular style. Don’t get me wrong – it’s still very competently directed and acted – just no fancy frills. For my money though fancy frills would be entirely inappropriate here. While not crowd-pleasing or award-winning, the realism lends itself well to this kind of story and makes it believable.

I don’t think this will be a popular choice, but I got a hell of a lot out of it and am glad I saw it. It’s a must-watch for anyone with an interest in how the concept of justice is brutally redefined when it comes to big business, and how just about anyone can be bought or controlled.
