Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

SnoopyStyle Dick Wolf expands his Chicago universe. Mark Jefferies (Carl Weathers) is the State's Attorney. Peter Stone (Philip Winchester) and Anna Valdez (Monica Barbaro) are ASA's. Antonio Dawson (Jon Seda) and Laura Nagel (Joelle Carter) are investigators for the office.Wolf ties this in with his other Chicago shows but it's the least compelling of them. This is basically Law & Order redux. There is even a direct connection to the original show. If he's going to do that, he should have brought back one of the old actors to do a cameo. I'm not sure returning to the old standard adds anything compelling. It's the same old formula with even more impossibly-beautiful people and none of them are good rooting interest. I'm surprised that NBC canceled it but sometimes an overgrown plant needs to be trimmed.

thirtyeyes Not getting most of these Chicago shows. I like Chicago PD but haven't been able get the FD and the med show. This new one about Justice is terrible. The characters are poorly written and the acting is sub par and really stiff. Now, the assistant to the assistant to the DA is very attractive. I think too attractive, but unfortunately she is not doing very well with the acting thing. I also hate it when she shows up on the PD show, cause I always wonder why this model is walking around acting like a lawyer. I can't say I really like any of the characters on this show not even the CPD guy. He was always among my least favorite characters on CPD, however, I can admit that the man is a good actor who is mostly wasted on this show. Anyway, the worst part of this show is the writing. The story lines and the resolutions are just horrid with no basis in reality. I am not a lawyer, but only an idiot would believe that that is the way a court room works. I have watched 4 episodes so far and each time I say one more episode because I don't want to be hasty only to find that the next is worse. It seems as if the writers are watching old courtroom shows for some sort of inspiration. I mean, the bailiff holding up 3 fingers is right out of "My Cousin Vinnie". Getting the husband to shout out his guilt seemed a copy from the Tom Cruise movie with Jack Nicholson. Oh, and the dumb music while they are trying to convince you that something incriminating is being said is just plain annoying. And once they tried to tell you that a women may be blind because she has diabetes from a lack of sunlight due to wearing an Arab robe. How dumb do they think we are? I almost laughed when they pulled the aforementioned Joe Pesci scene as a way to prove the women wasn't nearly blind. I kept waiting for someone to say "the two yutes" or "sack o suds". Good grief, I wish Sly Stallone would show up and knock Apollo Creed out and end this farce of a legal drama.

cosmoaj12 The character played by Carl Weathers almost completely ruins this show. Most of the other characters aren't any better. I had such high hopes for this show, since all the other Chicago series are fantastic, sad to see that Jon Seda moved to this Show. He deserves better than what they are bringing to this show so far.

LiquidPoetry1921 'Chicago Justice' is Dick Wolf's fourth in a series set in the city of Chicago, but this time he is working with his long time 'Law and Order' collaborator Michael Chernuchin, so some of that gritty feel from the Big Apple will hopefully find its way into the Windy City.Starring Carl Weathers (Rocky) as Mark Jeffries, Cook County's District Attorney, who is a no-nonsense, by-the-book prosecutor. Joining Jefferies as his ASA's are Philip Winchester (Fringe) as Peter Stone, an idealist with a soft side, and Monica Barbaro as Anna Valdez, as serious as she is overly glamorous. That was the 'order' ~ now here's the 'law'. The trio works with a pair of no-nonsense investigators...Joelle Carter, who you might remember from that great show "Justified", and Jon Seda, who crossed over from another Wolf show, 'Chicago PD'.You'll frequently see actors from the other Chicago franchises doing guest appearances on this show, as well as the 'Justice' crew wrapping up their day at Molly's, a local pub 'owned' by the folks at 'Chicago Fire'.The cross-over event introducing the show was entertaining, as well as a few of the stand-alone episodes that have aired since then. If this show takes anything from Wolf's show 'Law and Order', I hope it's his 'ripped from the headlines' premise which made that series very successful.
