THE FIRM is convoluted (even for a legal thriller), overlong and boring. Tom Cruise and Jeanne Tripplehorn's performances are good, but Gene Hackman does nothing memorable. Anyone could’ve played his role. The music score is very creative, but some scenes were not well-directed at all. Especially the last one Gary Busey appears in. 3/10 ------------------------------------- You can read comments of other movies in my blog (in English, in Spanish or in Italian).

7/10 One of very few Tom Cruise films I have enjoyed, and that I still have in my movie collection. Pretty solid cast too.

I liked it very much. Taut thriller, great performances, excellent cast. 10/10
Not understanding how it could be boring and overlong. Maybe you have an instant-gratification type of mindset when it comes to films? Nothing wrong with that, and many films of this ilk will probably not appeal to you.

Depends. What do you mean by "this ilk"?

Depends. What do you mean by "this ilk"? Slow burners, and something to which you have to pay attention in order to understand what's going on.

Then I invite you to click on the links in the OP, so you can see all the slow burners and/or mind-fucks that I've loved.

Entertaining chase/fight sequence involving Jigsaw, Hank, and Quaker Oats, though.

Pretty blah by my standards. I haven't seen the film in yonks and I like Tom Cruise, this one just didn't rapture me. Well presented, just not that exciting. Rapture as in "The" Rapture? I think you were expecting too much.
