Movies Thoughts on this scene in A Few Good Men.

[Takes Two To Tango]

This is before Jim Carrey in the Ace Ventura films.

So I guess Jim Carrey was doing a Tom Cruise.

Love this scene Cruise is at his best.

Great movie, great underrated scene, everyone remembers the "I want the truth!" but this was a solid 8

Markenson's dead. I would have flipped out too. If Col Jessup keeps his cool in court, Private Santiago gets buried and the Code Red lives on

Yes the "I want the truth!" scene is legendary.

 

[PG29 red0 Jr]

I always felt like Colonel Jessup was the good guy in this film.

 

[RollSonnenRoll]

I love this movie and one of Cruise’s best performances. Didn’t care for this scene though. Felt too much like it was shoehorned in to show his range and dramatic chops. It’s forced. No one rants like that and I can’t take it seriously

 

[Fedorgasm]

Young Demi Moore was so beautiful.

I wish she never got those implants though.

 

[Tone C]

Yes the "I want the truth!" scene is legendary.

If only for that fucking tie moving around.

Agree with @RollSonnenRoll AFGM was a great performance by Cruise but in this scene his rage comes off forced and overdone. He's channeling his best Alexandr Karelin but doesn't quite nail the intensity. Solid 7 good but not great.

 

[Thrawn33]

I do enjoy how Cruise's character has hardly any ribbons, showing that he's a true desk jockey and very junior officer.

Hollywood fucks up military uniforms and ranks so much it's good to see when it's done right.

 

[Sobek]

Yeah it's a little forced, but still great. It shows there are a few great scenes in this movie (including the obvious one and the 'you have to ask me nicely' scene).

 

[crabmeat]

Lt(GJ) Kaffee is a drunk driver.

 

[Jack Reacheround]

I gave it a 7. It’s a good scene, but the best scenes in that movie are “You can’t handle the truth” (of course), and when Kevin Pollack mocks Demi Moore (for the longest time I thought that was Andi McDowell) and says “Oh, but I strenuously object.”
