トム・クルーズ扮する主人公・Kaffeeが演じるのはMilitary Lawyer。Jack Nicholson演じる大佐・Colonel Jessep相手にCode Red（暴力的な教育）命令を出したかどうかを焦点に映画は進んでいく。Demi MooreもさることながらKevin Baconなどの脇役も好演、息をのむ展開に仕上がっている。

A Few Good MenKAFFEE: I'll ask for the forth time. You ordered--
JESSEP: You want answers?
KAFFEE: I think I'm entitled to them.
JESSEP: You want answers?!
KAFFEE: I want the truth.
JESSEP: You can't handle the truth!
JESSEP: Son, we live in a world that has walls. And those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt.Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and you curse the marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: That Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives.
And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You want me there We use words like honor, code, loyalty...we use these words as the backbone to a life spent defendingsomething. You use 'em as a punchline.
I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it. I'd prefer you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to.
KAFFEE: Did you order the code red?
JESSEP: I did the job you sent me to do.
KAFFEE: Did you order the code red?
JESSEP: You're goddamn right I did.
世界の現実的な平和は、平和主義者が嫌う軍隊によって守られている、そんな当たり前のことをふと思いださせるこの映画。
この作品のタイトルは、"The Marines are looking for a few good men."という海軍の宣伝文句から来ていると思われる。
