Judgment at Nuremberg

Odd--not the famous trial of Goebbels, etc., but a later trial of ordinary Germans (judges, for example) involved in day-to-day Nazi life.  Nice premise, but it's BORING. It looks like there will be a series of guest appearances.  Tonight we saw Montgomery Clift. Judy Garland is also a co-star.  Too much talking; not enough action. And the main ideas are no longer controversial--yes, ordinary Germans were implicated.

This one is getting the hook.  Three hours . . . which is twice as long as it needs to be.

Netflix Lincoln Lawyer

 Just a long yawner.  Acting was fine; there just wasn't nearly enough plot to carry 10 episodes.  Tech guy accused of killing wife.  LL takes on the case after the tech lawyer's first lawyer is murdered.  Mickey Haller gets the guy off . . . trick is the guy is guilty.  He used a drone to dispose of bloody clothes.  Subplot Maggy McFierce trying to get a conviction of a human trafficker.  She loses but then wins.  The divorced couple almost gets back together, but they are on opposite sides of the adversarial process and work comes first.  Won't be in a hurry to watch Season 2

Brotherhood

 Showtime -- Providence, two brothers, one aspiring politician the other a crook.  Totally different, but not so much.  Cop (close friend as child) is investigating crooked brother.  Pretty good series.
