din D @L1J2K3 14h A good old fashion court room drama with a game Jack Nicholson. This movie is really strong, across the board great performances and a well-built story. This sort of funny sort of sad movie is good alone with an even better and well thought out ending. See more Chris L @Christoph2000 4d Truly exceptional with one of the tightest and most intelligent screenplays ever written, this is also amongst the best legal dramas of them all. How many movies trigger a racing heartbeat from electrifying quick-fire dialogue alone? That's Aaron Sorkin's special gift. Some of those usually omitted from analyses of the creation of yet another gem in Rob Reiner's directorial crown are J. A. Preston for his steely performance as the judge and every soldier contributing to the mesmerising theatrics throughout the opening credits. A story about standing one's ground, never giving up in spite of the odds (although Kaffee comes close, he has magnificent female assistance on side) and ultimately the necessity of staying true to one's conscience in the face of illegal orders. That overriding message is tragically one requiring much harder emphasis in the year 2026. Jack Nicholson owning the movie in c. 20 minutes reinforces why he became the male star with the most Oscar nominations. Superb.

The Firm, which he made next and which hugely benefitted from the success of this one, was greatly inferior. See more R M @Cashman3010 Feb 7 Brilliant film that I've watched countless times. From the whip smart Sorkin dialogue to top notch performances from a stellar cast. It would have been easy to end with a full acquittal, but cleverly steers the closing scene to a 'won, but ultimately lost' case for the defendants. The pace is brisk and there are so many memorable lines / scenes. See more Mark L. @dispatcherofdeath Feb 1 An absolutely amazing film! All drama and incredible acting by everyone.
