20 years after this came out and we are still fighting the same fight, as you reflect you think could this really be true, great watch
If u want to learn more about the dynamics of how picking a jury works. Then this movie is for you.
It was really good as you’re watching but then after it’s over and you reflect you realize it was great!
Good court room drama but the behind the stuff keeps you glued. Wished they would have slowed the pace of the twist connections revealed
One of the very best high tension court thrillers I've ever seen! Great cast, great story, very admirable style! Never got boring at all!👌
I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would
Enjoyable if implausible courtroom thriller, engaging, good pacing
Pretty naive I'd say, but enjoyable to watch. A fairytale for the adults.
A brilliant adaptation of John Grisham's legal thriller.
Hackman, Hoffman, Cusack and Weisz. Was enough for me.
