A Civil Action (DVD, 1999)

i loved everything especialy it was about a lawyer who gave up every thing he owned to stand up for what he believed in.as a future law student it showed me that some lawyers have morals.

Excellent film and very interesting story line. good acting by all.
could be good family viewing as language not bad and very little violence.
touches a area that most people want to deny happens in society still today.
film about taking the right stand regardless of how much is coming your way. good film shows caring for others and staying in the fight when you know your right actually works!

It's a good movie and the wife told me to get it. She likes john travolta And I think he is a great actor.And I plan on collecting all of his movie's. This is a real story movie and I met a person that they made the movie about. Plus I can get good deal's on movie's on ebay. Sorry about my spelling.

John Travolta was great in this movie. Scenes were highly commended on the impact it had on people. Highly recommend to see it.

I HAD SEEN THE MOVIE AND LIKED ITVERY MUCH I WANTED A NEW DVD FOR A CHRISTMAS GIFT FOR SOMEONE OUT OT THE COUNTRY. I HAVEN'T OPEN IT NATURALLY BUT WAS PLEASE AT PRICE AND DELIVERY.

Arrived quickly and in excellent condition. Haven't watched it yet, but I'm sure it's fine. Thank you.

Starting the film as the traditional stereotypical lowlife lawyer, John Travolta is actually superb as his character develops into someone who actually cares about his clients, and about people other than himself.

Robert Duvall is excellent as his opposing counsel, and his character's interplay in the courtroom drama with Travolta is worth seeing the film for alone. Duvall plays quirky characters like few else in modern cinema.

Given the job of prosecuting a tannery over water pollution that has led to the death of many children, this is well written and structured - as well as being brilliantly acted and well directed.

The one complaint I would have is that this petered out a little in the finish, which was perhaps inevitable as it's a true story, and sometimes the climax of real life isn't as good as in fiction.
