The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial Reviews
It's a minimalist chamber piece delivered with fiery intensity.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 22, 2024
Although the film maintains a classic and solid narrative, it fails to reach the intensity and emotional depth of the director's best works. [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 6/10 | Aug 19, 2024
…a strikingly effective capstone work from a movie master.
| Original Score: 17.5/20 | May 10, 2024
The position of the camera compensates for the limited movements, always observing the characters from an angle that may change during interrogations that we can only watch while clenching our fists. [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 3, 2024
Remarkably bold in its formal and aesthetic approach, the courtroom drama is practically Bressonian in its minimalism and removal from conventional cinematic attributes.
| Original Score: B+ | Jan 1, 2024
A courtroom drama about proper and improper military conduct that has contemporary relevance.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 24, 2023
The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial sometimes drags and some of the minor supporting players as the witnesses can be weak. The film is still a solid swan song from Friedkin though, featuring strong lead performances and passages that make audiences think

While The Caine Mutiny is a showcase for its actors, it doesn’t put much else on display.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 20, 2023
Every iteration of this drama over the years has the same problem, a rather glib final dismissal of Maryk's instinctive actions as if they had been part of an ill-conceived plot rather than the act of a man trying to prevent disaster.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 18, 2023
This thing moves like a rocket. There’s not an extraneous shot nor a wasted word.
| Oct 17, 2023
The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial is tense, intelligent and riveting – and a rock-solid swansong for a gifted director.
| Oct 16, 2023
As pure an actor’s showcase as you’ll find, one in which every role is a juicy one — and in which every actor gets a moment (or two or five) to shine.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 16, 2023
Admirably stripped-down, meaty courtroom drama... It’s to [Friedkin's] credit as a director closely attuned to what makes a gripping and authentic performance that the film is such a showcase of [the cast's] abilities.
| Oct 14, 2023
Though not particularly flashy, Friedkin’s camera glides with purposeful restraint...
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 13, 2023
Invigorated by a stellar cast, this adaptation is repetitive yet suspenseful.
| Oct 13, 2023
It’s a sturdy, impeccably acted courtroom drama that’s more than deserving of being in the same league of “A Few Good Men.”
| Original Score: B+ | Oct 12, 2023
Friedkin ends his long-standing and esteemed career on a high-note with a courtroom drama that keeps audiences riveted.
| Original Score: A- | Oct 12, 2023
Hurricane Billy went out on top! The New Hollywood director has scripted a modern take on the classic story/play by Herman Wouk and uses the resources afforded by a straight-to-streaming film to make it as tense, affecting, and even humorous as needed.
| Original Score: 8/10 | Oct 11, 2023
William Friedkin finalizes his career perfecting the made-for-온라인카지노추천 format by embracing the claustrophobic intensity of its theatricality getting stellar performances by Jason Clarke & Kiefer Sutherland for a worthy swan song that will linger in relevancy.
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Oct 11, 2023
It makes for a classic courtroom thriller, and comes with a zinger at the end.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 11, 2023
