A Few Good Men (1992)

Aaron Sorkin adapted from his own stage play, the one that put him on the map. Story is a legal drama about a cover up involving the accidental murder of a Marine stationed at Guantanamo Bay. Very well crafted story, but I was surprised how little it had to say about much of anything, I guess I expected more from Sorkin. That being said the movie is again very well executed and has seemingly everybody in it, Tom Cruse and Jack Nicholson‘s performances being the best remembered. Solid but not quite spectacular film. Thumbs up.
