A Good movie but does it send out the wrong message?

Rating: 8/10 (26 January 2001)

Rules of Engagement is a very intreging film that is fascinating and makes you ask a lot of questions of the characters and of the actions they take. Samuel L Jackson plays Colonol Terry Childers who goes into the Yemen to bring home the ambassador and is caught up in a violent situation which results in the death of 83 civilians. He is charged with murder by the US government and is taken to court.He enlist the help of life long friend and defence lawyer Hayes Hodges( Tommy Lee Jones)to try to get him off the hook. While this film is very good i do have a problem with the outcome. If i was on the Jury i think the decision would have been very different.! 8 out of 10.
