While Travolta is passable as Schlichtmann, it is the outstanding work from Duvall, Macy and briefly Tony Shalhoub that drive the story.

... hints at the complex moral issues that vein the story.

the film is slightly overlong and the ending is anti-cathartic.

This is a case in which the material really is better served in book form.

I expected a harder hitting indictment against the uncaring power of corporate America. Instead, we get a middlin' courtroom drama that lacks the intensity of such films as the 1982 Sidney Lumet/Paul Newman film, The Verdict.

Schlichtmann may have gone through this conversion in real life, but I just didn't buy it the way Zaillian presents it.

The movie becomes one more David-and-Goliath morality play.

Based on a true story, this is an intelligent legal thriller, very much in the mode of 1970s issue-oriented films, that may be too subtle and complex for the damands of today's market.

I'm all for films that don't flow from the usual Hollywood test tubes, but A Civil Action is basically the standard formula with a dash of downbeat.
January 01, 2000
A slick, shameless job that takes way too long to make its point (namely, we need the EPA).
February 14, 2001
As proficient a job as writer-director Steve Zaillian and his team do, A Civil Action has unmistakably unraveled by its close.
February 09, 2006
Delivering the verdict two thirds into the movie is anti-climactic, while Schlichtmann's belated atonement feels beside the point.
