DVD Review: Ace Attorney

Phoenix Wright is a novice lawyer who obviously has potential but his bumbling nature and his tendency to get overwhelmed by new facts and evidence stop him from achieving greatness, while his rival Miles Edgeworth is cool and collected and seems to have every possible angle covered before any trial, as his perfect win record shows.
