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

Fantastic film. Everybody in the cast did a stellar job. Love watching Jack Nicholson get a kick in his behind.
 90s classic April 25, 2008
One of the best movies of the 90s in my opinion, and possibly Tom Cruise's best performance. And of course Nicholson is great too. So many classic lines in this movie, I find myself quoting it almost weekly. Is also possibly the best courtroom movie ever.
Blue Ray DVD March 29, 2008
"A Few Good Men" (Blue Ray) was our first Blue Ray DVD. We were more than satisfied with both it's visual efficency and multichannel sound.

No, not really but I made you look. I just wanted to sound like a typical red-faced hysterical conservative. Do you like the overwrought exclamation marks?
Considering how horribly it portrays the US military, it's a good thing A Few Good Men is just a movie. Otherwise, I might feel obligated to judge it as anything other than excellent entertainment and, thus, give it one star. The script is extremely well written and several of the actors (Cruise, Moore, Nicholson, Bacon and Pollak) render an acting clinic. Here's a rundown of the character traits portrayed by the main actors.
Cruise: A crass, immature and unprofessional Naval officer
Moore: Overemotional and frequently incompetent Naval officer
Nicholson: A high ranking Marine officer who is a psychotic petty-tyrant with delusions of grandeur
Bacon: Army (I think) officer...Likably bland...fairly positive character
Sutherland: Marine officer...a sadistic, disloyal unamerican creep...in a 1970's movie, his character traits would be attributed to a Nazi SS officer
Marshall & Bodison: Marines...blankfaced stormtroopers
Walsh: Mentally unstable and suicidal Marine officer
Pollak: Naval officer...morally indignant bleeding heart liberal weenie
Cruise matures a little and one of the accused achieves mild self-awareness but A Few Good Men portrays most of the personnel as unfit to serve, one way or the other. Compare this movie to the military movies of yersteryear and you'll see how the military is portrayed in today's movies is almost the complete opposite of how it was portrayed before the social revolution of the late 60's and early 70's. Can you imagine John Ford, John Wayne, James Stewart, or Maureen O'Hara touching this project with a ten foot pole? Times have changed.
