It’s the perfect goodbye from an artist who lived to jolt you out of a sense of complacency. Mission accomplished. Read full review

The Film Stage David Katz

Sep 12, 2023

The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial succeeds as many adroit legal thrillers have, probing the limits of the law (and its inability) for all its protocol and safeguards, to provide a full accounting of “justice”: it is always so much more complicated. Read full review

In The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial, Friedkin holds you rapt with the nimbleness of his camera placement (the sharp cinematography is by Michael Grady), the crispness of Darrin Navarro’s editing and, above all, the initially stiff but ultimately spellbinding rhetorical force of the actors.

Like “Cruising” and “To Live and Die in L.A.,” to cite two of my favorite works by Friedkin, The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial does not stop playing with our heads when the credits start to roll. Read full review

Like so many of his other movies, it’s pithy, punchy, a little shouty at times, but made with brio and swagger. Read full review

In its own way, the film is as suitable a final work as a culminating magnum opus. Read full review

The Film Verdict Alonso Duralde

Sep 29, 2023

There’s a history of great directors going out on a lesser film, and unfortunately, Friedkin joins their ranks. He leaves behind an extraordinary filmography of groundbreaking work that will inspire generations to come, but The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial will exist, at best, as a footnote to this legendary career.
