Two things about this movie that isn't as good as the book, first of all, the book tells of the tobacco industry which seems a lot wealthier and dirtier in their tactics than that gun producer as shown in the movie. Also, Nicholas Easter was young in the book yet they cast JOHN CUSACK? lol
On December 24,2006 at 8 o'clock in the morning, a young 14 year old boy by the name of Scott Jackson was found dead.Doctors couldn't come up with the cause of his death.His mother checked his emails to see if she could figure out what happened.Turns out he was still signed into myspace.She found he had gone to sleep after he read and didn't repost a chain letter.if you don't repost this to 6 videos a girl with no face will kill you tonight. sorry don't wanna die
@FernandoVillarrealG it's an enjoyable movie . It's not important movie and doesn't have any social message . It doesn't even belong in the top courtroom movies . Anatomy of a murder , a few good men , 12 angry men . Those are classics . Runaway jury isn't even able to live up to its own potential . Gene Hackman/ Dustin Hoffman . On the paper it's Heat . But Hoffman gets dry humped by Hackman and nobody is pleased.
Lot of suspense in this movie so I watched it entirely. But the evil villain was too obvious 'gun company' and wonderful child loving 'anti-gun' . It was fun to make fun of it as it played out of course with how evil anyone supporting gun rights was and how really all anti-gun folks want is Love LOL. All we need is love la la la la...
Sixties lives on LOL. When a rapist breaks in just show him your love and he'll break down in tears ----no really--- he will...
@SanEverett Really nice movie. Im so sorry for some people in the states.
USA is so proud of their second amendment and they -northamericans- really needs it. Is the only nation i know with a so huge % of people scared of a rapist break and entering their home in a dark night. After all is what they want to ----no really--- they want it...
I don't like the style of John Grisham & I admit, I haven't read the book... But the storyline is amazing, I loved this movie! It's got a perfect cast. Recommended to everyone!
I'm in favor of the gun manufacturer and I think a lot of other people would be too. I don't like that this movie casts the gun manufacturer as the villain.
Honestly I prefer movies of the 70's, 80's and 90's but Runaway Jury is pure masterpiece. No question! Interesting & intriguing storyline, suspense and brilliant ending. Dustin Hoffman is real master of acting. Gene Hackman was great too. I adore Rachel Weisz and John Cusack. They were fantastic and looked great. Very beautiful screen couple. They should make more films together.
I love the way the book is written, its not an intense struggle between the good and bad guys, the whole time the good guys are butt fucking their opposition, its freaking sweet.
in the book, the guy died from lung cancer then his wife sued the cigarette manufacturer. they change it a bit ithink bcoz its too political. btw the book is great.
STUPIDEST MOVIE EVER MADE - how can you prosecute a company for doing something LEGAL - that broke NO law? Like the jurist said - you gonna sue MacDonalds because you're FAT. You're just dealing with the SYMPTOMS not the problem - why find fault with a company obeying the law - change the laws - because people can't sue the government very well!!!
@gomergilligan they are not being prosecuted, this isn't criminal law, it is tort law. They are suing the company because they neglected to prevent their product from entering the black market because they were too interested in making money. A person who eats at mcdonalds getting fat is their own fault, getting shot with a weapon that was leaked to the black market was not the victims fault. The whole point of this case it to set a Precedent, if you don't know what that is good look it up.
@hewittdj1 that's the dumbest crap I've ever heard - how can a company prevent their product from entering the black market - whether it's cigarettes, booze, guns, porn or anything else - this opens pandora's box - where does it stop?
the movie wasnt as great. the real story was actually against a tobacco company, not a fire arms company and in the end the shocking truth is they found out her parents died of lung cancer not something about a school shooting. the book was way more interesting and suspensful
I totally agree!! Why does moviemakers take a great story and try to reinvent it and call it the same?? Grrrr . . . Loved the book . . . the movie . . not so much.

@TurboFuss1 Many people in Hollywood smoke. So they went with something they know nothing about.
In the real world the big Gun Companies have never lost a case that I'm aware of. Only the junk gun makers have been found liable for producing junk.
