Country: USA

LaserDisc Movie Storyline:
When two marines are charged with murdering a member of their platoon during an unsanctioned disciplinary action in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, the armed forces hire a lieutenant they believe is a lightweight defense attorney. Lieutenant Daniel Kaffee (Tom Cruise) prides himself in having successfully plea-bargained every one of his 44 cases and would just as well make this one his 45th. However, ambitious internal affairs officer Lieutenant Commander Jo Ann Galloway (Demi Moore) smells a rat in the form of a hushed-up practice known as Code Red and, furious at Kaffee's halfhearted efforts, gets hired as the younger cadet's defender. Aided by Lt. Com. Galloway's prodding, Lt. Kaffee begins to realize the rottenness of the whole affair and sets to take on the whole Guantanamo Bay marine corps and its codes, a decision that makes inevitable a ferocious head-to-head showdown with an immovable force. Irascible Colonel Nathan Jessup (Jack Nicholson, in one of the most striking performances of his fabled career) heads the Cuban marine base and is on the cusp of appointment to the National Security Council. Jessup embodies both the necessity and the evil in necessary evil and does not take lightly to anyone questioning his or his corps' methods. Aaron Sorkin's script is adapted from his own gripping award-winning Broadway play and is skillfully brought to the screen by director Rob Reiner.

LaserDisc Movie Review:
In this military courtroom drama based on the play by Aaron Sorkin, Navy lawyer Lt. Daniel Kaffee (Tom Cruise) is assigned to defend two Marines, Pfc. Louden Downey (James Marshall) and Lance Cpl. Harold Dawson (Wolfgang Bodison), who are accused of the murder of fellow leatherneck Pfc. William Santiago (Michael DeLorenzo) at the U.S. Navy base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Kaffee generally plea bargains for his clients rather than bring them to trial, which is probably why he was assigned this potentially embarassing case. But when Lt. Commander JoAnne Galloway (Demi Moore) is assigned to assist Kaffee, she is convinced that there's more to the matter than they've been led to believe and convinces her colleague that the case should go to court. Under questioning, Downey and Dawson reveal that Santiago died in the midst of a hazing ritual known as "Code Red" after he threatened to inform higher authorities that Dawson opened fire on a Cuban watchtower. They also state that the "Code Red" was performed under the orders of Lt. Jonathan Kendrick (Keifer Sutherland). Kendrick's superior, tough-as-nails Col. Nathan Jessup (Jack Nicholson), denies any knowledge of the order to torture Santiago, but when Lt. Col. Matthew Markinson (J.T. Walsh) confides to Kaffee that Jessup demanded the "Code Red" for violating his order of silence, Kaffee and Galloway have to find a way to prove this in court. A Few Good Men also features Kevin Bacon as prosecuting attorney Capt. Jack Ross, and Kevin Pollak as Kaffee and Galloway's research assistant, Lt. Sam Weinberg. --- Mark Deming

Rob Reiner's military courtroom drama is rife with over-the-top acting and emotional hyperbole. Treading the familiar cinematic paths of government cover-ups, military codes and honor, new ground is broken for mindless entertainment. The intensity and seriousness with which the ultra-glam cast of Tom Cruise, Demi Moore, Kevin Bacon, and Jack Nicholson carry on would suggest a film of grave import, but in actuality, this severe tone is so overblown as to render the film ridiculous. Ridiculous but fun, especially in the case of Jack Nicholson, who collected a big check for his role as a tough-as-nails mean marine without really breaking a sweat. Nicholson mails it in one scene then transforms into the brilliantly crazed Nicholson of One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest in the next, giving this off-key drama some life and appeal. However, Cruise was less adolescent in Risky Business and Demi Moore is flat and lifeless. Kevin Bacon and Kevin Pollack give heads-up supporting performances to level things off a bit. Part of an early '90s outbreak of word-mincing suspense dramas, using finish-the-other guy's-sentence dialogue a great deal, A Few Good Men proved again that Reiner is a filmmaker who knows what the public likes. Of course, appealing to the masses may sell tickets but does not necessarily make for great cinema. --- Mike DiBella
