A brilliant but troubled Lawyer must let go of what is holding him back, save his son, and keep his family together.
A few specifics would help. 'Must let go of what's holding him back': This is vague and tells us nothing. Specifically what is holding him back? What is the obstacle? 'save his son': From what? Drugs? kidnappers? Aliens? Since we don't know what his son needs saving from, we have no clue to what theRead more
A few specifics would help.
‘Must let go of what’s holding him back’: This is vague and tells us nothing. Specifically what is holding him back? What is the obstacle?
‘save his son’: From what? Drugs? kidnappers? Aliens? Since we don’t know what his son needs saving from, we have no clue to what the story is about.
‘and keep his family together’ Since saving his son seems serious, this last bit is a bit of a let down and sounds more like a b story line, I would drop it from the logline.
Hope this helps, good luck with this!

I believe the advantage of one characters being the kill-mate in the logline, is that the 'big reveal' at the end of the movie would be that the lead character was the kill-mate all along. 1: The lead character discovers he has a kill-mate 2: He's skeptical but does research, finds instances of killRead more
I believe the advantage of one characters being the kill-mate in the logline, is that the ‘big reveal’ at the end of the movie would be that the lead character was the kill-mate all along.
1: The lead character discovers he has a kill-mate
2: He’s skeptical but does research, finds instances of kill-mates
3: Something happens, and the lead character plot’s to kill the ‘kill mate’, before the kill-mate can kill him.
4: A voice of reason enters the story, possibly a love interest (b-story)
5: There are a couple false trails, he almost kills the wrong person
6: The lead character has doubts and begins to listen to the voice or reason
7: New evidence is given to him, he discovers exactly who the kill-mate is.
8: Now he seeks out the kill mate, to kill him before he is killed
9: Showdown! The fight is on
10: He wins and kills his kill-mate
11: His victory turns to ashes when the lead discovers he was the kill mate all along, the person he killed was an innocent (Possibly a whistle blower) who was trying to take down a big evil corporation.
12: (Tragedy ending) He is taken away and sent to the insane asylum the last glimpse we get of the lead character, he is in a padded room the door being shut.
12: (Happy-ish ending) He escapes the scene just as the police arrive. We cut to the CEO of the big evil corporation celebrating because he believes his plan has succeeded. We see the feet of a waiter entering the room, the camera pans up, we see the waiters pants and white jacket. The waiter is carrying a silver tray, under the silver tray is a gun. We pan up to finally reveal, it’s the lead character disguised as the waiter. We see the lead heading for the CEO in the middle of the room, FADE OUT

It's interesting how Ideas come back around. There was a movie called Demon Seed ?in 1977, based on a book by Dean R. Koonz.
