Product Description:
NEO MILITARY LAWYER KAFFEE DEFENDS MARINES ACCUSED OF MURDER: THEY CONTEND THEY WERE ACTING UNDER ORDERS OF THEIR IMPERIOUS CO, JESSUP.
Amazon.com essential video:
A U.S. soldier is dead, and military lawyers Lieutenant Daniel Kaffee and Lieutenant Commander JoAnne Galloway want to know who killed him. "You want the truth?" snaps Colonel Jessup (Jack Nicholson). "You can't handle the truth!" Astonishingly, Jack Nicholson's legendary performance as a military tough guy in A Few Good Men really amounts to a glorified cameo: he's only in a few scenes. But they're killer scenes, and the film has much more to offer.Tom Cruise (Kaffee) shines as a lazy lawyer who rises to the occasion, and Demi Moore (Galloway) gives a command performance. Kevin Bacon, Kiefer Sutherland, J.T. Walsh, and Cuba Gooding Jr. (of Jerry Maguire fame) round out the superb cast.Director Rob Reiner poses important questions about the rights of the powerful and the responsibilities of those just following orders in this classic courtroom drama. --Alan Smithee

- "Tom Cruise Is Impeccable!"
"A Few Good Men" is not only one of my favorite movies, but is my favorite Tom Cruise film. Released in the early '90s, the picture is about a United States lawyer working for the Morine Corps, who is hired to defend two young men accused of the accidental killing of a fellow officer. The film is cast with some of Hollywood's best actors, most notably Jack Nicholson, in a hair-raising performance as a Navy Officer who is commander-in-chief, who harbors a dark secret. Demi Moore and Kevin Bacon round ... Read More

- Great movie, despite numerous military inaccuracies or "make-believe"
First off, it is worth seeing/buying this movie just to see the famous Jack Nicholson scene:"You want the truth?"
On the other hand, the military inadequacies by Reiner and crew and many fold.
As a former USAF Captain who sat on many courts-martial in my six years of active service, I can tell you this was staged for the civilian in a typical civilian court room setting to avoid confusion.In a REAL court-martial here how it is set up.First off, the judge is NOT the focus ... Read More

The Bottom Line:
A courtroom drama more intelligent than most, A Few Good Men zips through its 135-minute running length with the help of crisp editing and good performance all around; while the movie probably wasn't worthy of a Best Picture nomination, it most assuredly is worthy of your time.

- "I Want The Truth." "You Can't Handle The Truth!!" A Gripping Drama That Never Lets Go. All-Star Cast & Superb Directing.
From the creator of "The West Wing" and the director of "The Princess Bride" comes a gripping drama about a hotshot lawyer (Tom Cruise) saddled with his first case, a young secretary with Internal Affairs (Demi Moore) and the commanding officer in charge of U.S. troops stationed at Guantanamo Bay (Academy Award winner Jack Nicholson). The superb cast includes Kevin Pollak ("The Usual Suspects"), Kevin Bacon (his wife, Kyra Sedgewick, stars in TNT's "The Closer"), Kiefer Sutherland ("The Three Musketeers," ... Read More

- You can't handle the truth!!
One of the more famous movie lines ever and it comes from a great movie. It is a courtroom drama that keeps you on the edge of your seat. It focuses on marines who are accused of murder but Tom Cruise's character takes up the case (not necessarily by choice) and argues that they were just acting on orders that they could not disobey. This is one of Jack Nicholson's best roles and he is believable in that role. I have seen this so many times and I do not get bored of it at all.
