With the storyline based primarily on the first game in the Ace Attorney series (Phoenix Wright:Ace Attorney), the series' signature style is combined with a courtroom drama. Rookie defense attorney Phoenix Wright strives to protect his clients in various murder trials, including the death of his mentor, Mia Fey and the accusation of rival prosecutor, Miles Edgeworth. Wright's greatest ally is Mia's younger sister Maya Fey, a spirit medium whose body is possessed by Mia to communicate with him. Wright is later given the task of solving the DL-6 case, a murder that has not been solved for 15 years. He will also go against Manfred von Karma, a prosecuting attorney who has not lost a case in 40 years. Sci-fi elements are also used, such as characters bringing up holographic images of evidence during trials.
The Movie is directed by Takashi Miike who is best well known for Shinjuku Triad Society,Rainy Dog,Ley Lines and Dead or Alive.
In my opinion this is one of the best video games movies I've ever seen and If you haven't seen it it's totally worth watching in my opinion.
