@mookie Saw #RunawayJury a long time ago. As a sometime trial lawyer, I found it "interesting" but not very realistic.

Laughably implausible but entertaining, and it's not like I come to John Grisham-based stories for believability anyway. My ★★★½ review of Runaway Jury (2003) on Letterboxd: https://boxd.it/7W760j #RunawayJury #JohnGrisham #Letterboxd
A ★★★½ review of Runaway Jury (2003)

Of all the films based on John Grisham novels, Runaway Jury is the least plausible. And that’s a high bar considering that two of his other films are about an assassin-employing law firm and a rich man’s plan to murder his way into a favorable Supreme Court ruling. Grisham writes airplane thriller paperbacks that somehow manage to class themselves up through court proceedings and three-piece suits. No shade there; they’re entertaining. Jury goes the extra mile in how it stretches the bounds of suspension of disbelief toward its breaking point. And yet, it’s also one of the best film adaptations

It has been twenty years since #JohnGrisham's #RunAwayJury was made into a #film, and a gripping one at that, helmed by Dustin Hoffman, Gene Hackman, Rachel Weisz and sensational John Cusack - unmissable & #MustWatch. #Cinemastodon #filmastodon #satisfaction #WatchAgain 🎬🎞📽
