Critics Consensus: A volcanic Al Pacino holds court in this histrionic legal drama, the star grounding a tonally imbalanced script with the conviction of his impassioned performance.

Reviews

Boston Phoenix

Phoenix Staff

Al Pacino, noisy and effective, yet totally out of control, as a disillusioned Baltimore lawyer, gets to grandstand shamelessly; he gives the movie what little power it has, but the performance is all hollow showmanship.

Some scenes are grim and tragic, some pure farce, some manifestations of paranoia of daily life in these times, but Jewison has not found the glue to meld them together. His anxiety ridden film is too often hot and cold running water.

The codification of Pacino’s movie star persona, the first time he started treating that magnificent head of hair as a co-headliner and when his squeaky Michael Corleone whisper got gruff.

Rene Jordan

And Justice For All is an excessive film. It has a lot to say and sometimes loses its breath, chokes and stutters. But it is good, and at times excellent. [Full review in Spanish]

...AND JUSTICE FOR ALL is a blistering satirical commentary on the American judicial system in general and specifically the correctly perceived two sets of rules for society's haves and the have-nots.
