Rather thin plot, very good acting.

Rating: 6/10 (11 February 2001)

Macho US Marine stuff (maybe a minus for non US audiences), a rather thin plot (with enough gaps), but if you are a Tommy Lee Jones and/or Samuel Jackson fan, you'll enjoy it -it's a two men show! Jackson 's acting reminds of Nicholson in "A Few Good Men" but in a more tight and balanced way. The action scenes are good, the jury scenes good be better. Not the kind of directing you would expect from the man who directed "The Exorcist" and "Cruising", though.
