Rules Rules!

Rating: 8/10 (8 April 2000)

This is one powerful and exciting film. Samuel L. Jackson and Tommy Lee Jones are fantastic. This is about a Marine head(Sam) who during a rescue mission in Yemen fires on a crowd killing 83 people including many innocent women and children. He is court-marshaled and hires his best friend (Tom) who he saved during Vietnam to defend him. The first half of the film is a military action film. It has lots of war-style action and slow motion shots. The second half is courtroom drama and very intense. Jackson does is normal job of stealing every scene. The film is great in it's an action drama when you don't know what's going to happen next. Guy Pierce is the hot shot lawyer trying to bring Jackson down. And he's great in the guy you love to hate. This film is hard-hitting, action filled and greatly acted. I give it an 8.5. This is a no-doubt must see.
