Overwiew :James Woods stars as a William Kuntsler-style lawyer in this tale of injustice and renewed dignity. In the 1960s, idealistic advocate Eddie Dodd courted controversy by defending outspoken youths and free spirits. Alas, in the 20 years since, he has succumbed to cynicism. Nowadays, perpetually stoned, he protects coke dealers who pay for his services with paper bags full of cash. Then Eddie takes on an assistant, Roger Baron, who brings to his attention the case of a wrongly imprisoned Asian man. Suddenly Eddie's conscience is sparked, and he sets out to clear the man's name. As Eddie investigates the crime, he encounters on-the-take police officers, dirty D.A.s, and even neo-Nazis every step along the way. Eddie not only must help an unjustly accused man but salvage his own self-confidence--and stay alive--as well. TRUE BELIEVER, directed by Joseph Ruben, features terrific performances by James Woods and Robert Downey Jr.

www.washingtonpost.com - : Director Joseph (''The Stepfather'') Ruben and screenwriter Wesley Strick present just enough comic relief and courtroom twists to make the case an entertaining and gripping one. But it's Woods, uncovering the almost-requisite conspiracy (something to do with a white racist network) and undergoing the requisite spiritual transformation, who gives ''Believer'' that vital punch.  more...
