An old-fashioned courtroom drama with a contemporary edge, A Few Good Men succeeds on the strength of its stars, with Tom Cruise, Demi Moore, and especially Jack Nicholson delivering powerful performances that more than compensate for the predictable plot.

Designed to get the audience rooting for this upper-class underdog, the movie accomplishes its task with military efficiency. But since the deck is stacked and the cards well worn, it hardly seems a victory to cherish. Feb 7, 2018 | Full Review…

By pitting Cruise against Nicholson in the film`s final courtroom confrontation, Sorkin and Reiner are pitting two notions of masculinity and two notions of stardom against each other. Apr 30, 2014 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

A brisk and familiar courtroom drama of the old school, as pleasant to watch as it is predictable, Men more than anything else is a tribute to pure star power. Apr 30, 2014 | Full Review…

The whole film, with its steady, important-picture pacing, its foursquare visual style, and its pseudo-profundity, is a piece of glorified banality. Apr 30, 2014

The literally in-your-face camera work can easily expose an actor's weaknesses, but, with the lens framed on Nicholson's bulldog visage, he lets loose with volcanic fury. His demagoguery and gung-ho self-righteousness are something to behold. Apr 30, 2014 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

As speechy and preachy a courtroom drama as you'll ever find, detailing the secret manoeuvring that shadows a naval court-martial. Aug 2, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

There are more than a few excellent men in the cast, and a fine woman, too. But Rob Reiner's A Few Good Men roars with excitement only when Jack Nicholson seizes the drama between his sneering, snarling teeth. May 31, 2018 | Full Review…

It's a very watchable picture, with plenty of drama and some good laughs. But you can't forget for a moment that Reiner is taking your emotions on a carefully guided tour. Apr 30, 2014 | Full Review…

The ultimate rebel Jack Nicholson has a ball playing the ultimate establishment figure in this star-laden, rather old-fashioned courtroom drama. Apr 30, 2014 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
