From the Hip

About This Movie

From the Hip is this quirky blend of comedy and drama from Bob Clark, capturing the chaotic life of an apprentice lawyer in a way that feels refreshingly real, yet just absurd enough. You can sense the tension between Robin's ambition and his ethics, as he stumbles from one ridiculous situation to another. The pacing is interesting, with a mix of light-hearted moments and some genuine tension as he navigates the murky waters of morality while defending a seemingly guilty professor. The performances have a kind of raw energy—especially from Judd Nelson in the lead role—that makes the film distinct. It's fascinating to see how the darker themes of ambition and consequence weave in and out of the comedic undertones.

Interesting character development throughout.Mix of humor and serious themes.Unique portrayal of legal profession.
