Anyone seen this or read the book? The movie stars Tom Cruise and Gene Hackman, it was a good film though I preferred the book. I didn't want to put the book down I wanted to carry on reading and find out what happened next...when the film got to where the middle fo the book went parts of it completely changed.
There's a big chase right at the end of the film but in the book it continued on for longer and it continued on to the Cayman Islands and didn't stay in Memphis. I suppose that part was cut out due to time and costs but it woulda been really goood to see some parts that were in the book, in the movie.

I've seen the movie... and like it...
The book is from Grisham(can't spell it for my life) isn't it? we probably have it then, my mom has most of his books... I started one once to read in bed... and fell asleep pretty soon, I remember mom saying it wasn't his best book and I should try another one, but I never actually did...

Yep.. I'm pretty sure it's from Grisham. That spelling is correct btw.. as far as I know.

I haven't read any of his books. But I've seen many of the movies. Great. The Firm is really good.. so are several of the others.
