"A runaway hit! Powerful performances. A Thriller whose outcome isia walloping surprise!"-Gene Shalit, Today
From master storyteller John Grisham and the director of Don't Say A Word comes a taut suspense-thriller that "grabs hold of you and never lets go" (Philadelphia Metro).
In their first film together, screen legends Gene Hackman and Dustin Hoffman face off in this electrifying nail-biter about a ruthless jury consultant who'll do anything to win. With lives and millions of dollars at stake, the fixer plays a deadly cat-and-mouse game with a jury member (John Cusack) and a mysterious woman (Rachel Weisz) who offer to "deliver" the verdict to the highest bidder. Packed with danger, intrigue and pulse-pounding twists and turns, Runaway Jury rules!

Even with the story change, this is a great Grisham adapatation - 5 out of 5 (11/17/2004)
Having just viewed the dreadful In the Cut, it was good feeling to watch a movie that knows how to actually deliver suspense instead of just being a cheap tease of one, and Runaway Jury is just such a movie.
The novels by John Grisham make for good suspense readings. When transferred to the silver screen, the intense legal thrillers hold up sometimes if not all the time. I'm pleased to note that Runaway Jury is one of the better Grisham movie adaptations. With the privilege of having a top f

Was Director Gary Fielder Pinch Hitting for Michael Moore? - 3 out of 5 (9/7/2004)
A truly enthralling book totally exploited under false pretenses by the gun control lobby. Despite the phenomenal efforts of the cast members to turn out a winning product, I believe they will each come to regret being a part of this outright prostitution of all cinematic license. No amount of bonus material, and there is lots of it, can make up for cheap expressions of a personal political. When your copy of the dvd demonstrates loading problems and menu selection problems (like mine did), r

Horrible... - 3 out of 5 (6/15/2004)
Despite the nice plug-in review by Gene Shalit from Today this movie was bad even with the movie stars Gene Hackman and Dustin Hoffman. The trailer looks great but instead of Runaway Jury this movie should be called a Waste of Time.
