Movie Review

Grade: A+ Based on John Grisham's novel, A Time to Kill is a compelling, tear-jerking story of racism in modern day United States. Acting is stupendous, completely believable. There's not one scene that's slow and the concluding speech is fantastic; it will move you. A Time to Kill has to be one of the best movies of the decade! Read the full movie review
