Movie Reviews

Flick Filosopher - 9/10 by MaryAnn JohansonA Time to Kill demonstrates perfectly why John Grisham is always at the top of the bestseller lists. Never mind his awkward, stilted prose -- the man tells compelling stories. And here we get his great story unhampered by bad writing.
Variety - 9/10 by Todd McCarthyAs originated by Grisham and adapted by Akiva Goldsman, this is a story of elemental emotional and legal issues splashed across a large canvas, and director Joel Schumacher has done a solid job of keeping the many components in focus and balance.
Time - 9/10 by Richard SchickelDirector Joel Schumacher's breathlessly paced and incident-crammed movie will induce a certain sense of deja vu among veteran viewers.
The New York Times - 9/10 by Elvis MitchellIf the film doesn't add up to a cogent legal argument, neither does it have trouble delivering 2 hours and 20 minutes' worth of sturdy, highly charged drama.
ReelViews - 8/10 by James BerardinelliThen again, it's worth noting that this Hollywood production is actually saying something, rather than just churning out eye-popping special effects while relying on a regurgitated plot.
Courier-Journal (Louisville, KY) - 8/10 by Judith EgertonMcConaughey nails with such laconic grace that some critics are comparing him to the young Paul Newman and to Gregory Peck in To Kill a Mockingbird.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Edward GuthmannJoel Schumacher, the director of "Falling Down," "The Client" and "Batman Forever," has a strong feel for this kind of glossy pop entertainment and a way of integrating social issues without sacrificing narrative drive.
Rolling Stone - 8/10 by Peter TraversMcConaughey, 26, is dynamite in a performance of smarts, sexiness, scrappy humor and unmistakable star sizzle.
rec.arts.movies.reviews - 8/10 by Dragan AntulovNothing more than an entry in Matthew McConaughey's filmography.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertA Time to Kill, based on the first novel by John Grisham, is a skillfully constructed morality play that pushes all the right buttons and arrives at all the right conclusions.
