A Few Good Men

Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson, and Demi Moore star in this classic courtroom drama about the ethical line between following orders and following one’s conscience. With a screenplay from Aaron Sorkin (The West Wing), Cruise stars as a brash Navy lawyer who’s teamed with a gung-ho litigator (Moore) in a politically explosive murder case. Charged with defending two Marines accused of killing a fellow soldier, they are confronted with complex issues of loyalty and honor, including its most sacred code and its most formidable warrior (Nicholson). Superbly directed with a trio of powerhouse performances and an outstanding supporting cast including Kevin Pollak, Kiefer Sutherland, and Kevin Bacon.

"That the performances are uniformly outstanding is a tribute to Rob Reiner, who directs with masterly assurance, fusing suspense and character to create a movie that literally vibrates with energy."
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
"Pace and performances dominate, with popped salutes going to Keifer Sutherland, Kevin Pollack, Kevin Bacon and especially Nicholson's smiling barracuda."
Mike Clark, USA Today
