Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: You wouldn't know it by watching the Batman movies they collaborated on, but this smart adaptation of John Grisham's novel proves that director Joel Schumacher and screenwriter Akiva Goldsman have some talent when the right project comes along. Schumacher had previously directed Grisham's The Client, and brought equal craft and intelligence to this story about a young Southern attorney (Matthew McConaughey, in his breakthrough role) who defends a black father (Samuel L Jackson) after he kills two men who raped his young daughter. Sandra Bullock plays the passionate law student who serves as McConaughey's legal aide and voice of conscience in the racially charged drama. Added to the star power of the lead roles is a fine supporting cast, including Kevin Spacey, Ashley Judd and Oliver Platt. --Jeff Shannon, Amazon.com Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - A Wonderful Film Exposing America's Racism & its Criminal VENGEANCE System.When a 12 year old black girl is raped, beaten and almost murdered by two racist, redneck pigs, the little girl's father shoots both of them dead whilst they are being taken to trial. He committed murder, he is as guilty as sin and nobody believes otherwise. On the contrary in fact, the main question in this film is whether a black man should be allowed to take vengeance against whites. Indeed, having based the defendant's entire case on the lie that he was 'temporarily insane,' the killer's attorney spells out this fact at the end of the film by asking the jury to imagine the little girl's attack and then asking "NOW IMAGINE SHE'S WHITE." Throughout the film, the community is divided between ... Read More: Rating:  - Should have been betterCarl Lee Hailey (Samuel T. Jackson) is a poor black man in a racially-divided Southern town. When two white men brutally rape his daughter, he decides to kill them and he does - in front of witnesses. The hot-shot DA (Kevin Spacey) is almost guaranteed a murder conviction, and novice attorney Jake Brigance (Matthew McConaughey) decides to defend Carl Lee. This movie is so full of top-notch actors I expected to be swept up in the story and moved by it, but I wasn't; many of the actors are wasted and I kept wondering if it would ever end. Although Sandra Bullock gets top billing, she doesn't become involved in the film until an hour and fifteen minutes in, and then, she's in and out and never really clicks. The story should have focused ... Read More: Rating:  - Good Grisham AdaptationThis movie based on the book with the same title, is about a trial about a man who shot some people because his daughter was raped, and the KKK is coming in, as the trial goes on. This is a very powerful drama, and a decent cast as well, Samuel L. Jackson, Sandra Bullock, Donald Sutherland, Kevin Spacey, Kiefer Sutherland, Matthew McConaughey, and Ashley Judd. Very great and dramatic acting, directed by Joel Schumacher, the man who brought Falling Down,Batman & Robin,Batman Forever,Phone Booth,The Lost Boys St. Elmo's Fire and many others. The scenes at trial were very realistic and convincing and the beginning of the film was perhaps the most disturbing in this movie, and the scene with the KKK coming in was also disturbing. A must see for those ... Read More: Rating: - Worth a 2nd, 3rd, 4th and nth watchThis film was shown on TV last night and I have seen a few times, but every time I see it again, I always get a different feeling. Such a powerful film that touches you every time you see it. I am buying this film on DVD so that I can watch over and over again the court room session at the end, the way John Grisham summarises a lot of issues in Matthew McConaughey's summation, the last line he says in his summation just hits you differently...amazing - watch it and see. This film is just excellent, it's not one of those films that makes you hate people but makes you hate the crimes that people do and how they affect others to a point were they snap, but like everyone else who has wrote a review, it raises an important question, can murder ... Read More: Rating: - what would you do in the same situation?A time to kill raises the moral issue on whether there actually is a way you can kill someone and get away with it in terms of it being justified,no the film isnt about war,thats a seperate issue for a different day,what you have here is the tale of a father (samuel l jackson) who kills two men on trial for the near murder of his little child in a state where the majority of people are white and the jury is white,hence jackson feels the case wont result in the two men spending time in jail. You may say that i have given the plot away or said too much and the truth is i havent,i have only opened the door to you on the films theme and its handled brilliantly and the film is both moving and passionate,great performances by all the cast including sandra ...
