Ace Attorney (or Gyakuten Saiban) is a 2012 Live-Action Adaptation of Capcom's Ace Attorney Visual Novel games. Directed by Takashi Miike, the movie focuses on the events in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, specifically the second and fourth cases.Phoenix Wright is a rookie defense attorney determined to uncover the truth and defend the innocent. When his mentor, Mia, dies after calling about a big case she's working on, Wright finds himself thrown into cases much more difficult than he'd imagined. Aided by Mia's younger sister, Maya, he must go against the legendary prosecutor Manfred von Karma, in order to clear the name of Miles Edgeworth and solve the fifteen-year mystery known as the DL-6 Incident. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: The film did minimize a lot of the quirkiness from the game. Gumshoe is a young, fresh detective rather than his bumbling, middle-aged game counterpart; Maya is a serious, hurt woman rather than her bubbly, humorous game persona. Compared to other examples of Darker And Edgier, this film doesn't exemplify it as much, but in the context of the Ace Attorney series, definitely. The darker tone is especially noticeable during Polly the Parrot's cross-examination. In the game, it's hilarious all the way through. In the movie, it is a pitiful grasping at straws as Phoenix desperately tries to save Edgeworth. And then the movie shows just how much DL-6 really affected Yanni Yogi's life... | |

| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_1a6d9f92 | comment |
By the Eyes of the Blind: In the games, a spirit possessing a medium really does alter their physical features, making it absurd that anyone disbelieves in spirit mediums. However, in this film, Phoenix is the only one who can see Mia's ghost possessing Maya, making it easier to believe the skepticism surrounding possession. | |

Adaptational Villainy: Von Karma is just as vile as his game counterpart, but also has Mia Fey and Redd White killed which he didn't do in the games. Subverted with Gregory Edgeworth. Miles only thought his dad was hiding evidence. | |

| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Inverted with the evidence Mia finds just before she's killed. In the game, it's hinted to be something pertaining to Redd White's blackmailing, but is implicitly stolen back when he kills her and pretty much forgotten about. In the movie, it's the bullet from Gregory Edgeworth's heart, which is re-discovered by Phoenix in the third act and helps him win the trial. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: In the games, it is simply assumed that Edgeworth's slide away from his father's profession is the result of his upbringing by Manfred von Karma with no personal sentiment on his part. However, in the movie Edgeworth is given a personal reason to drift away from the life of a defense attorney caused by suspicion that his father had tampered with evidence in a trial he was working, and he grew distrustful of defense attorneys. The movie expands on Yogi's motives, by showing how cold-hearted Robert Hammond really was, and going into detail of how DL-6 ruined his life. | |

The Perry Mason Method | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_266e4fc7 | comment |
The Perry Mason Method: Surprisingly subverted, during the cross-examination of Redd White. Even though Phoenix is able to prove that Redd was in Mia's office the exact same time the murder happened, Redd only will admit he was there, and insists that there's no proof he actually committed the crime. While the Judge admits this is true, he also declares Maya "not guilty" because Redd's testimony was clearly false. After the trial, Gumshoe arrests Redd presumably for perjury, and tries unsuccessfully to get more info on the murder out of him. This also has to do with the fact that Phoenix is fresh out of his diapers and as nervous as hell in the defense's seat in his second trial. This is why the trial lasted as long as it did, as Phoenix didn't squeeze White while he was down. It also receives a Call-Back in the final trial, when von Karma uses exactly the same excuse as White and argues that it can't be proved he killed Gregory Edgeworth because he had no motive to do so. As a sign of how far he's progressed, Wright is able to quickly put together exactly what von Karma's motive was and get him arrested. | |

Funny Background Event | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_26eb6287 | comment |
Funny Background Event: After the Blue Badger makes his heroic appearance and blocks the gavel, his head rolls off, revealing that no one was inside the suit. The very presence of the Blue Badger. The story behind it (it's actually the police department's mascot) is touched on in case 1-5... which is the only case that does not make it into the movie. Without this background info, most of its appearances give the impression that one of Gumshoe's entourage has decided that every day is fancy dress day down at the office. | |

| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_2764d432 | comment |
Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: The movie's interpretation of von Karma. He presents himself as a respectful and polite man with only some stiffness that can be chalked up to professionalism. However, he's just as self-serving and sociopathic as he is in canon. | |

Face Fault | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_2d266580 | comment |
Face Fault: Several examples, though portrayed as realistically as a live action adaptation of Ace Attorney can permit. The first time is when Phoenix nitpicks Lotta Hart's testimony, trying to find a valid contradiction in her saying the gunshot went off on Christmas Eve — but the best he can do is to point out that, since it happened shortly after midnight, it technically happened on Christmas Day. Everyone, including Lotta, Edgeworth, and von Karma facefault at that. The second happens when the boat rental man testifies that he saw Edgeworth on the night of the crime, his cravat fluttering as he said, "I never thought I'd shoot someone!" Edgeworth objects to this on the grounds that he never said that, and "Moreover... my cravat doesn't flutter to that extent!" Cue the entire courtroom facefaulting. An apparent subversion shows up when von Karma stumbles in place, but doesn't actually fall, when Phoenix calls Polly the parrot to the stand. In the post-credits scene, the courtroom does this when the defendant identifies the glowing guitar presented as evidence as "Jammin' Ninja's Trademark Guitar!". | |

Glass Cannon | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_2f253c94 | comment |
Glass Cannon: In the flashback to the DL-6 Incident, Edgeworth was able to distract Yanni Yogi by biting him and apparently threw the gun hard enough to knock him out, but was knocked unconscious by being shoved against the wall. Justified, as he was a child at the time. Interestingly, the Thinker clock itself could be considered this. Redd White swung it hard enough to kill Mia Fey with one blow, but it breaks after being accidentally nudged off the defense's bench. | |

Detective Gumshoe. In the game, he starts as a hostile witnessnote Due to his one-sided admiration/friendship with Edgeworth who eventually becomes an ally in the sequels, though he remains the The Ditz. In the movie, however, he seems to be an Adaptational Badass as he acts as one of the department's leading detectives, and is generally less antagonistic throughout. | |

Death by Adaptation | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_48c99e19 | comment |
Death by Adaptation: In the game, Redd White just disappears after his trial. In the movie, he is poisoned in jail. This is to fill a potential Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole, since the movie has Redd be an accomplice for von Karma, and him being killed prevents Wright from getting him to testify. | |

Adaptation Distillation: Only the second and fourth of the game's four cases are given focus on, with the first case only having the conclusion shown, and a variation of the third case being briefly shown and concluded to introduce Edgeworth. And even the second and fourth cases are condensed somewhat; however, the movie makes up for this by giving the second and fourth cases a stronger connection to each other by way of making Redd White's murder of Mia an order from von Karma to cover his misdeeds in the trial against Gregory Edgeworth (in the game the relation between the second and fourth cases are only tangential due to past events that play a minor role in each). | |

Pragmatic Adaptation | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: A lot of things were pared down or tweaked to make the first game fit a good running time for a movie. Notably, the first and third cases are cut down to an opening montage to show how Wright and Edgeworth operate in court, leaving room for the second and fourth cases to be meshed together. The second and fourth cases are even fitted to operate in the 2 hour 15 minute movie, as most details and even characters (April May and Marvin Grossberg) are cut. | |

He Knows Too Much: Mia is killed for uncovering new evidence which would have proved that the gun von Karma provided as evidence fifteen years ago was forged. It turns out that Von Karma was anticipating this when he killed Gregory Edgeworth, who hadn't actually figured out the forgery, but was well on his way to discovering it. | |

| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_723606c4 | comment |
Adaptational Early Appearance: In the movie, Manfred von Karma, who is elevated to being the Big Bad, is introduced far earlier than he is in the videogames. It is largely due to all but two of the game's five cases being Adapted Out and also using the case against Miles Edgeworth (the fourth one that occurs late in the game, but the second one in the movie) serving as the main plot of the film. | |

Adaptational Intelligence: In the games, Gumshoe is a Clueless Detective, who's constantly admonished for his screw-ups. Here, he's a competent investigator, and is treated with respect by those around him. While still rather excitable, Larry has a much clearer head on his shoulders in the movie than in the game, where he's an absent-minded ditz who constantly makes things worse for himself. | |

Adaptational Angst Upgrade | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_730d3664 | comment |
Adaptational Angst Upgrade: Maya breaks down a few times, and is very much traumatized by the death of Mia and the thought that her mother's channeling technique really did send an innocent man to jail. She also screams at Redd White after her trial, demanding to know why he hurt her family so much. Aside from the trauma of his childhood, Edgeworth has to deal with the suspicion that his father hid evidence. | |

Adaptational Badass | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_736d791f | comment |
Adaptational Badass: Detective Gumshoe. In the games, he's usually a bumbling, gruff-spoken, middle-aged man whose occasional bouts of competence is overshadowed by the accomplishments of Phoenix and Edgeworth. Here, he's one of his department's leading detectives and acts it, too. | |

Adaptational Nice Guy | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_82a64c4b | comment |
Adaptational Nice Guy: Manfred Von Karma. His movie self is less aggressive and hostile towards the defense, instead acting more professionally than his Jerkass video-game counterpart. It's only when he begins going through his Villainous Breakdown do we start to see his more temperamental side. Detective Gumshoe. In the game, he starts as a hostile witnessnote Due to his one-sided admiration/friendship with Edgeworth who eventually becomes an ally in the sequels, though he remains the The Ditz. In the movie, however, he seems to be an Adaptational Badass as he acts as one of the department's leading detectives, and is generally less antagonistic throughout. Edgeworth is a bit nicer in the film. At the very least, he's less antagonistic to Wright. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: The tasering of Phoenix and Maya. Those who played the game will know that it was Manfred von Karma. The movie goes out of its way not to show the culprit and thus preserve the mystery, but it doesn't really come up again and is only there to explain the loss of the letter incriminating Yanni Yogi. Inverted with the evidence Mia finds just before she's killed. In the game, it's hinted to be something pertaining to Redd White's blackmailing, but is implicitly stolen back when he kills her and pretty much forgotten about. In the movie, it's the bullet from Gregory Edgeworth's heart, which is re-discovered by Phoenix in the third act and helps him win the trial. | |

Villain with Good Publicity | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_87bb6874 | comment |
Villain with Good Publicity: In the public's eye, von Karma is a pretty reasonable individual and he even shakes Phoenix's hand before going into court. What no one knows is he's terribly corrupt behind the bench and will use every underhanded trick to score convictions, which makes him look like a hero of justice to the eyes of the public but the reality is far darker. This is actually something of a change from the games as in the games, he is overtly ruthless and won't even so much as make eye contact unless he wants to intimidate someone. | |

Asshole Victim | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: Robert Hammond. While all the details are the same as game, we see firsthand how callous he was through Yanni Yogi's flashback. In a nutshell, Hammond didn't care whether Yogi killed Gregory or not — he just didn't want his firm's reputation go down because of a guilty verdict. So he told Yogi to admit his crime and plead insanity. Redd White dies in the movie. Being one of the biggest slimeballs in the franchise, nobody misses him. | |

Faux Affably Evil | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_95b7c400 | comment |
Faux Affably Evil: Von Karma tells Edgeworth that the way he conducts his trials is not to be commended, being too harsh. He then kicks off the Gourdy shooting trial by introducing himself to Wright, and basically wishing the best man to win. And then, everything he's done is revealed... Though he's still more Affably Evil than his game counterpart. Where in the games he's solely focused on never losing, always getting a Guilty verdict despite the opposition, and cheating his way to victory, in the movie, he claims his mission was to get the guilty condemned, in a perverted fashion of what (prior to Character Development) Edgeworth's characterization was like. Also, in the movie he faces his final fate with more dignity. | |

Adaptational Seriousness | |
| Ace Attorney (2012) / int_9d725c18 | comment |
Adaptational Seriousness: Much of the main cast undergoes through this to fit the film's more grounded and serious tone compared to the games. Maya in the game was a Genki Girl and a bit of an Adult Child. Here, she is a borderline stoic person who behaves more maturely and is still haunted and grief-stricken by Mia's death. She still has some traces of her original personality at points (such as looking at the giant inflatable Steel Samurai with a look of awe at one point), but it's more sparse and muted compared to the game. Edgeworth in the game was a Smug Snake who took pride in humiliating his opponents. Here, he's more of The Stoic and is less antagonistic towards Phoenix. The Judge in the games was an occasional Cloudcuckoolander, who while competent at his job, can be somewhat childish and is just as prone to being silly and over the top as the court he presides over. In the film though, he is borderline stoic and very serious. Gumshoe in the games was depicted as being a friendly and bumbling Clueless Detective who tends to be a Genius Ditz and a frequent Butt-Monkey. In the film though, he is far more competent and is less humorous, being incredibly serious for most of the film. | |

Compressed Adaptation: Parts of the original case of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney is used to condemn Redd White in his trial. In the mean time, the case of the Steel Samurai is handled solely by Edgeworth and a no-name attorney in which Edgeworth completely demolishes everybody who stood against him, including Dee Vasquez, who makes a cameo appearance as a witness. The movie's main focus is Case 1-4. As well as what in-game was evidence towards Redd White, who owned a company based on blackmail, in the movie the Thinker statue contained the bullet that hit Gregory Edgeworth. | |

Analyzing a bullet is done by throwing it towards the ceiling, where it is suspended in mid-air while several laser beams shoot through it. | |

Big Damn Heroes: On the last day of Edgeworth's trial, it looks like the key witness won't be found in time and Wright can't think of anyone else to call to the stand. The Judge is about to pound his gavel for a guilty verdict when... the Blue Badger dives in and blocks the gavel, followed by Gumshoe dragging the witness into the courtroom. | |

Manfred Von Karma. His movie self is less aggressive and hostile towards the defense, instead acting more professionally than his Jerkass video-game counterpart. It's only when he begins going through his Villainous Breakdown do we start to see his more temperamental side. | |
