Year: 1992
Director: Rob Reiner
Plot: 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 de Lorenzo) 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 (Kiefer 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, All Movie Guide

Body: Two United States Marines (Wolfgang Bodison and James Marshall) are arrested on numerous charges, including the murder of a fellow soldier who wanted to be transfered in exchange of information of an incident at their base at Guatanimo Bay, Cuba. "Lt. Daniel Alistair Kaffee" (Tom Cruise), a lawyer who always plea-bargined his way to a win without entering a courtroom, is assigned to defend them. "Lt. Kaffe's" first problem is to handle "Lt. Cmdr. JoAnne 'Jo' Galloway" (Demi Moore), who wants to be on the case so bad she gets the permission of "Pvt. Downey's" "Aunt Ginny" (Maud Winchester) to take over his part of his case. "Lt. Kaffe" declares himself lead council, with "Lt. Cmdr. Galloway" and "Lt. Sam Weinberg" (Kevin Pollak) as co-assistant council. His second, to keep his clients out of military prison on the grounds that they were under orders to haze "Pt. First Class William T. 'Willie' Santiago" (Michael DeLorenzo). Jack Nicholson, who steals the courtroom scenes near the end of the movie, plays the accused superior commander. It is obvious to "Kaffe" that he is hiding more than he's telling, and he slowly learns that is exactly what "Col. Jessep" (Nicholson) is doing. In this movie, all the crime scene clues which proves the defendants innocence are presented to the audience and are revealed through the eyes of "Kaffe" when he discovers them himself later on. You will raise an eyebrow when you realize that you saw a clue that might just help the defense's case. The story drags a bit until the case goes to court. It then gets interesting as it is revealed that the defense has case is actually stronger than it appears to be earlier on. The performances of the main characters also become much stronger in court. Prior to the scenes in the courtroom, the performances aren't extremely good, but are still quite strong. This is most evident with Cruise, Moore and Nicholson. Other performances are equally as strong, but they are weakened by lack of character development and amount of screen time. None of the scenes really stand out in this movie, except for the famous in court confrontation between "Keefe" and "Jessup." However, that scene stands out only due to the performances of the principle actors and nothing else. The wardrobe, especially the military clothing, looks quite convincing as well. "A Few Good Men" is carried by the performances of the cast and a pretty good screenplay written by Aaron Sorkin, who wrote the play the movie is based on. In my opinion, this film could be a good rental.

Body: So, Aaron Sorkin, writer of such films as A Few Good Men, The American President and Charlie Wilson’s War, and, of course, creator of TV’s The West Wing, is apparently now working on a movie about Facebook for Sony Pictures and producer Scott Rudin (No Country for Old Men). Yes, that’s right, a Facebook movie. News comes to us directly from the social networking site, as Sorkin himself announced the project by admitting that he has absolutely no clue what Facebook is. And I guess he’s looking for assistance or questions or something. Obviously he’s the perfect guy to be scripting a film about the founding of the site. I’m drawing a blank right now as to whether or not any websites have officially spawned movies (does AOL count?), but I do recall an idea from 3 years ago to make an internet dating movie sponsored by Friendster, which was to be directed by Harold Ramis and star Topher Grace. I guess the fact that Friendster faded from popularity in favor of MySpace and then Facebook ruined those plans. But is it possible that this new project will fare any better? Social networking sites have a habit of falling out of fashion rather quickly. Oh well, if Facebook: The Movie doesn’t work out, Rudin and Sorkin are welcome to go with any of these other ideas: 10. Friendster - Just because the other Friendster project didn’t pan out doesn’t mean the site can’t still inspire another movie. This one would be all about how Friendster rose to the top quickly and lived the good life until attempts to get even higher went awry and its fans abandoned it. You know, the age old story of celebrity. Sorkin might be interested because of the way it could parallel his hit stage play (and upcoming film) The Farnsworth Invention. 9. MySpace - Not to be confused with the user-generated MySpace movie project, or the parody video titled Myspace The Movie, this would be more of a thriller involving sexual predators. Because even if this social networking site, which was once the cool alternative to Facebook when that site started sucking, is one day completely left behind, it will at least be remembered in internet history books as synonymous with pedophilia and child safety legislature. 8. Funny or Die - More than just inspired by the website, the movie would actually involve its founders, Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, as well as the other hilarious celebrities that provide content to the site, such as Judd Apatow and James Franco. Hell, even Steve Guttenberg can make an appearance. It could either be a movie about the start of the site or a sketch compilation — as long as it’s more Kentucky Fried Movie than The Onion Movie. 7. MapQuest - It would take place around the turn of the century, when GPS wasn’t so common and people still depended on printed-out directions from the newly popular MapQuest. Chevy Chase and family get lost, though, when it turns out the directions aren’t actually that dependable. Either the details are confusing, or construction, street name change or new roads complicate matters. 6. Wikipedia - Take any event in history and make a movie based solely on its Wikipedia page. Even when the site was new and less dependable than it is now, such a film still wouldn’t have been as loose with facts as most “historical” films from Hollywood. 5. Flickr - An art film consisting of only still images, each randomly picked from the website. The filmmakers will arrange the pictures in an intended order, yet the finished product will feature no direct narrative, so the viewer is free to interpret the story as he or she wishes. 4. YouTube - I don’t care what the plot is or if it’s even shot amateur style. All I know is that it has to be distributed exclusively on YouTube and it must only be available as 10 separate clips, each no more than 10 minutes in length, and it can’t even be that easy to find when you search for it. 3. Napster - I thought there was supposed to be a movie about Napster founder Shawn Fanning, but I must have dreamed it, because I can’t find any sign of such a project ever pitched. But it would make a great film, anyway. Of course, it would only be appropriately watched after downloading it illegally. 2. Mr. Skin - This would be the most popular movie ever. And again it doesn’t matter what the plot is. Basically, the point would just be to get as many well-known actresses together in one movie and have them all bare some skin. They don’t all have to even get naked. One actress could just be topless, another may just flash one breast or just her butt. Nicole Kidman would be the star, though, and would just be completely naked throughout the entire film. 1. Spout - Obviously. Who wouldn’t want to see a movie starring Karina Longworth? I should let her comment with what it would entail, but I imagine it being directed by Joe Swanberg and mostly consisting of Karina watching Turner Classic Movies and providing commentary. I predict it’ll be #1 at the box office for 5 straight weeks, and it’ll out-gross The Dark Knight, too. Originally posted on:SpoutBlog

Body: A new pro-Hillary Clinton YouTube video surfaced today, cleverly titled "Jack and Hill." The video is a montage of various movie scenes featuring Jack Nicholson, who has endorsed the New York Senator, with slide transitions about Sen. Clinton's policy positions. The spot consists of a statement from Nicholson along with him in character as The Joker (Batman), Col. Jessup (A Few Good Men), and Jake Gittes (Chinatown).Watch the video here.(Cross-posted to Cerebral Politics)

Body: After a second-half career slump, director Rob Reiner has taken great pains to critic-proof his latest film, “The Bucket List.” “I'll pair two of America's best-loved elder actors, give them oddly endearing eccentricities, saddle them with a terminal illness, but show how they learn to LOVE LIFE!!!” he says (exclamation marks are a necessity here).So when a critic attempts to lay into the film for being rote and pandering, he or she will be derided for besmirching the actors' good names and callously drubbing those dealing with cancer.Well, bring on the hate mail. This is “Wild Hogs for the septuagenarian set (“Mild Hogs?” “Terminal Hogs?”), and it is a TV dinner of a film – everything spooned out in carefully measured proportions, pre-packaged and cold, without a hint of spice or surprise.The two ailing leads are a cantankerous old wisecracking coot and a gentle, grounded guru who are both diagnosed with the big C. Take a guess at which one Jack Nicholson plays and which one Morgan Freeman plays.I am convinced Nicholson doesn't even look at scripts to display his talents – he merely kicks back and waits for one to roll in that adapts to his persona.It's hard to even recall his character's name, for it's the same part he's been playing on- and off-screen for the past decade. He's shallow, he's boisterous, and yet oh-so lovable.Freeman, who has played everyone from the U.S. President (sigh. If only.) to God, is also in his comfort zone. Even though he's playing a humble mechanic, he's worldly and wise and never without a trivial tidbit to share like some Zen Pez dispenser.Once they both receive the news, they jet set around the world (oh, yeah, Nicholson's character is loaded, by the way), checking off items of things to do before kicking the titular bucket.Even though they visit post-card-perfect locales from across the planet (Italy, the Taj Mahal, the Himalayas), the same scene skips like a dusty DVD – Freeman spits out some obscure-yet-meaningful factoid. Nicholson gives a witty (read: sexist) rejoinder. They share a little bit more with each other.Lather. Rinse. Repeat.You could say it plays out over and over again, but to use the verb “play” may suggest something jovial about the proceedings. Make no mistake, this is as labored as it gets. The script (by relative newcomer Justin Zackham) seems as though it was merely a template in some computer screenwriting program that was not altered in the slightest. Every “spontaneous” scream of joy, every tear of sorrow feels scripted and calculated even to which direction said tear should travel down the cheek.Beneath this mountain of sentiment sits Reiner, a man who had a laundry list of great films (“This is Spinal Tap,” “Princess Bride,” “Stand by Me,” “When Harry Met Sally,” “Misery”) before it all got buried beneath the compost of his latter-day efforts (pretty much everything after 1992's “A Few Good Men”).His career, like Nicholson's, seems to be coasting on auto-pilot of late. And for both of them to be included in a film that is supposed to be about taking risks is a sadly ironic twist.Look, there is nothing wretched about anything in “The Bucket List,” but expectations from this caliber of talent raise the bar. And because of this, a movie that is supposed to be life-affirming is rather depressing.
