sam M @sammanson123 Oct 11, 2026 it's a very great movie and it really inactivates the viewer by the emotion. but i have to say the court room drama is a bit over the top, but yea its a movie so a litte extravagance doesn't hurt here and there. See more

David G @RT27591143 Oct 7, 2026 First, I thoroughly enjoyed the book - it is my favorite Grisham novel. If you have read the book, then you can relate when I say that the opening scene unleashes a visceral sense of justice in me. My mind probably filled in the missing pieces of the narrative, so I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and have watched it several times. See more

Adam D @RT05884708 Sep 29, 2026 Entertaining court room drama with social commentary. Excellent performances by Samuel L. Jackson and Kevin Spacey. Really fine performances by Matthew Mc., Sandra Bullock, Oliver Platt, and Kiefer Sutherland. The South is depicted in a bit over the top way, but hey it's a movie! The atmosphere is very sweaty. Literally, never seen so much sweat in a movie. A fine movie with a great cast. O I forgot Donald Sutherland and Charles S. Dutton are really good also. Fine writing by John Grisham and good direction by Joel Schumacher make for a fun watch with enough social criticism to make you wonder if America is grown out of the ugly parts of it's past, Last but not least Ashley Judd is a vision!

Elizabeth D @RT62064577 Aug 5, 2026 Despite being pretty one note this had me stressed af. A pretty exaggerated fallout from the initial event was enjoyable to watch for the most part, so I was surprised when the favourable verdict dealt an ending that felt somewhat anticlimactic and unsatisfying in contrast to the earlier chaos of the film. On a superficial level very sweaty McConnaughey is dreamy to look at, just enough so to distract you from the character’s questionable ethics and lack of regard for almost anything or anyone around him. PS I was on the verge of boycotting until it turned out the dog was in fact not dead (good save). See more

andrea C @Charst Jun 22, 2026 Legal drama sfacciatamente schierato politicamente e che per questo è destinato a dividere l'opinione. Sicuramente troverà l'apprezzamento della parte di spettatori più idealista e liberale; trovando invece più indispettito chi punta ad una giustizia equa e priva di emozioni. Sicuramente a mettere d'accordo tutti c'è il livello attoriale molto alto; dove senza dubbio viene voglia di scoprire più lati dei personaggi minori che invece non si ha tempo di approfondire. Possa piacere o meno l'esposizione del regista del racconto, sicuramente il film riesce nell'obiettivo di incollare allo schermo e di destare alto interesse. See more
