A very good movie

Honestly, beforehand, I wasn’t sure what to expect from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Denzel Washington, I thought I should check it out. Indeed, nowadays, it is a rather forgotten movie but it's a shame since it is actually a really impressive drama. Denzel Washington who was at the beginning of his illustrious career, had actually a small part but his character was very important . Basically, it is a very good court drama which deals with some very sensitive issues, like racial murder and I thought that it went pretty deep into the human psychology. I don’t know, there is always some added tension when a court drama deals with soldiers and this movie was not an exception. On top of that, there were some impressive performances and the whole thing was just spellbinding to watch. Eventually, 15 years later, Denzel Washington would make another movie with Norman Jewison, ‘The Hurricane’ and even though it was indeed a pretty good flick, I enjoyed this one even more. To conclude, even though it is now pretty much forgotten, it is actually really good and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.

8/10
