Back in the day, Matthew McConaughey played a version of Mickey Haller, the whipsmart attorney who does business out of the backseat of his car. Manuel Garcia-Rulfo takes over in this version, and he’s not too shabby.

The early episodes suggest it’s tamer than the movie, and possesses none of the edge ordinarily found on other streamers. You let us know if it’s worth a look, Netflix Fanatics!
