Amazon.co.uk Review
Al Pacino plays a Maryland lawyer who takes on a judicial system rife with deal making in And Justice for All, an awkward blend of satire and sentimentality. Topical director Norman Jewison can't seem to help Pacino get comfortable with the mismatched material, which pushes the film into outrageousness at some turns and mawkishness at others. The script by Barry Levinson and Valerie Curtin is more an accumulation of random ideas and moments than a congruent story. However, it's interesting to see the large cast of good actors, most of whom were unknowns at the time including Christine Lahti who made her film debut here. --Tom Keogh, Amazon.com

4.0 out of 5 stars YOU are out of order!, 24 Oct 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: And Justice For All [DVD] [1979] (DVD)
Before Al Pacino became bigger than the movies he appeared in, before he became a parody of Al Pacino, he produced work like "and justice for all".
Aside from being a deeply disturbing, at times pathetic, at times humourous protrayal of the corruption and inertia of the legal system, Pacino hands in a dynamic and dramatic performance as idealistic layer Arthur Kirkland. Kirkland truly believes in the rule of law, that everyone is equal in the eyes of the law, regardless of social status, and that there should be "justice for all".
It is such integrity that leads him to represent corrupt lawyer John Forsythe. (Charlie's Angels "Charlie", /Blake Carrington for "Dynasty"). And there his troubles start.
Along side a sucidal judge, a deeply troubled legal partner, a girlfriend whose professional commitment rivals Joseph McCarthy, and a family background which sees him struggling with absentee parents and an alzheimers Lee Strasberg, Arthur Kirkland's life is not plain sailing. Although, from the outset, we as an audience are with him, understand his straightforward professional and personal ethics of honesty, and cheer with him to the last as we see how one man can indeed fight city hall, and come out intact.
The beauty of this film is not merely Pacino's performance which is indeed credible and magnificent,and pre-dates "Al Pacino Movie Star" - but is reflective of life. Puzzling, comic, dramatic, heart breaking, and all at once redemptive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Story, 8 Oct 2003
By Mr. A. P. Venables "andi02" - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: And Justice For All [DVD] [1979] (DVD)
A truly great story about the gulf between the Legal system and true justice. And Justice For All is a gripping yarn from beginning to end and has a wonderful performance from Pacino.

What surprised me the most about the film is how funny and lively it is. It isn't a totally serious film and it has some really great funny moments. Pacino is also rapidly becoming my favourite actor and this film is so good it will make you want to hunt down his other films.

Also has a directors commentary.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pacino fans will enjoy this entertaining film, 26 Mar 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: And Justice For All [DVD] [1979] (DVD)
Pacino plays a honest lawyer surrounded by corruption on the highest levels. His character is surrounded by people whom are losing control. His partner, father and many clients are all causing him to loose sense of justice. Pacino is excellent as always, maybe not up there with The Godfather, Scent of a Woman and Scarface, yet he is believable as the struggling lawyer. The supporting cast is also excellent and you will find yourself being drawn into these characters and their situations. All in all Pacino fans will enjoy this film, the DVD quality is not fantastic and the extras are exactly what you expect. Overall its nothing spectacular but it doesn't try to be. Its thoughtful clever and entertaining.
