Top Five Movies Every Law Student Should See

Web Editor

1 Point Break (1991)

Devil’s Advocate is about a lawyer played by Keanu Reeves. Keanu Reeves also stars in the highly entertaining film, Point Break, in which his character, FBI Agent Johnny Utah, forms an unlikely friendship with Bodhi (Patrick Swayze), the charismatic leader of a gang of surfers. Need I say more?

2 A Fish Called Wanda (1988)

John Cleese plays a lawyer named Archie. Well, since this is a British comedy crime caper, I guess you would say he plays a barrister named Archie.

3 Adventures in Babysitting (1987)

Elizabeth Shue’s father was a lawyer. In Adventures in Babysitting, Elizabeth Shue plays a babysitter forced to drag the kids into the big city after an unexpected call from her best friend. Hilariousness ensues.  Basically, it is Jonah Hill’s latest film, The Sitter, but done in the 80’s and filmed in Toronto!

4 Final Destination Five (2011)

Ok so I don’t really have any way to tie this one in with the law. Nevertheless, you should watch the fifth installment of the Final Destination film franchise if only for the fact that they showed real guts in going ahead and making this movie after having labeled the previous instalment “The Final Destination.”

5 Some Like It Hot (1959)

I’m using my previous explanation as authority for the rule that the rest of my list does not need to be remotely law related. Some Like
It Hot makes the list for being my grandpa’s favourite movie, and a real hoot in my opinion!
