Wed, 25 Jan 2006 17:11:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rantorrave - Good story, great execution. Actors worked well together and Cruise hit his mark on this picture. Maybe still his best acting to date. He's gotten ribbed and robbed, but this will always be a classic film...

Thu, 27 Oct 2005 08:52:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bilavideo - Believe it or not, I went to see this film - when it first opened - because I was having "open discussions" with Marine Corps JAG. I was in law school, at a time when the bottom had dropped out of the market, and I was frankly willing to turn over any...

Thu, 4 Aug 2005 12:11:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author romasuave - When it comes to taut and enthralling courtroom dramas, very few movies manage to intrigue us like no other, To Kill and Mockingbird is one, 12 Angry Men is another, I am happy to say the A Few Good Men is good enough to be among the elite...

Thu, 21 Apr 2005 13:49:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author alexdg1 - Following the traditions of The Caine Mutiny and other riveting courtroom dramas (To Kill a Mockingbird, Anatomy of a Murder), the Aaron Sorkin-Rob Reiner collaboration A Few Good Men is less about a crime and its details than it is...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author zitocurve75 - For a very large part of my very short life I've been a bit mystified by the idea of this movie. I'd heard incredible reviews, and I could spot out the famous court scene with Jack Nicholson screaming "You can't handle the truth" with ease. The fact of...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author AliventiAsylum - Being the huge Kiefer Sutherland fan that I am (and this is long before 24 was ever on the air), the movie A Few Good Men has always been among my favorites. Imagine my disappointment at the poor quality of this DVD. There...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Walkere - A marine is dead. People want answers; they want the truth, but can we handle the truth?

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Donnie013 - Oh boy! When I signed up to participate in this write-off, I never dreamed it would be this tough! Maybe the hardest part is because I don’t really have a “favorite actor”. There are some I favor more than others and some I like the least, but...

Sun, 15 Jul 2001 17:18:42 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author knix - I hadn't watched this film in quite a while, but sat up last night watching it again for some reason. I wanted to do a review of "Andy Warhol's Dracula", with all it's talk of "wirgins" but, alas, that film is not in the Epinions database. Perhaps I'll...

Sun, 24 Dec 2000 21:45:28 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author expre - When Aaron Sorkin sat down to write his screenplay, A Few Good Men, he must have thought to himself, "Gee, I'm pretty sure my target audience is a bunch of bumbling idiots prone to drooling in their artificially butter-flavored popcorn, so...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author flutterby77 - A Few Good Men is probably remembered most for the legendary line spoken by Jack Nicholson in all of the commercials, “You can’t handle the Truth!”

Although it was released in 1992 on video I didn’t see it until this past...

Fri, 27 Oct 2000 14:29:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dmbaker - I'm not even sure if the two lawyers in this film are part of the Judge Advocate General but it shares the same court room drama and excitement with the television show JAG that has a similar theme.

Mon, 4 Sep 2000 17:54:26 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author verbalgirl - A Few Good Men got its start as a stage play... and it's obvious. There are a few exterior shots and some judicious cutting back and forth from location to location, but for the most part the characters stay in one place for a while. It's also very...

Tue, 22 Aug 2000 20:38:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ginger136 - A Few Good Men is definitely the most memorable film I have ever watched. The cast is definitely not short on talent nor big names. Tom Cruise plays the lead as a young Navy lawyer who is charged with defending two young Marines against three charges,...

Sat, 12 Aug 2000 12:25:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hazzah - There is something similar about all Rob Reiner films. Ironically it’s that they are all different. Reiner doesn't make the same film twice. He doesn't stick with comedy or action. He directs different movies all the time.

One of his...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author thephaze - This movie is one of the great court room dramas of all time. With an allstar cast of Tom, Demi, and of course Jack, you can just taste the energy as these actors do their thing. Possibly the most quotable movie ever made. My friends and I do not go a...
