Someone should sue the producers of this DVD for false advertising (irony intended). From the cartoonish cover and words sprinkled on the back such as "hilarious" and "witty" I actually got the impression that I was going to get a laugh or two watching this DVD. Instead it was one of the more depressing videos I have seen in a long time.A Lawyer Walks Into a Bar follows 6 potential lawyers who have made it through law school and now must face the California Bar Exam, one of the toughest in the nation. Their motives for becoming lawyers are examined as well. Various study methods are implied if not really compared or even examined. Physical illness, family concerns, impact on relationships - all are fair game for this video but none are taken far enough to mean much.
At the end we do find out who passed the bar and who will stand in line yet another time.
