This competent, anonymous legal drama (scripted by Michael Herr) is the best John Grisham adaptation yet. Full Review
Time Out
Feb 9, 2006
Rating: C -- The Rainmaker aside from being competently made is not something that stands out for being fresh. Full Review
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Feb 7, 2004
Rating: C -- The overbearing soundtrack, unimaginative cinematography, and indulgently tear-jerking ending ... this all adds up to a surprisingly derivative movie from Coppola.
Looking Closer
Dec 6, 2004
Rating: 3/4 -- The Rainmaker is easily the best of the Grisham movies so far, and it has touches of excellence, but it's a routine work. Full Review

4 stars out of 5 -- Razor sharp, with some great performances, this is as entertaining as it is intelligent.
Ultimate DVD
Aug 1, 2007
A wonderfully quirky cast under Francis Ford Coppola's direction makes this one of the more enjoyable Grisham movies. Full Review
Newsweek
Mar 5, 2018
Rating: B+ -- It's an intelligent film that doesn't cater to the usual eye-candy we face during the holiday season and is one of the best adaptations of a Grisham novel. Full Review

Product Description:

John Grisham's novel comes to life in Francis Ford Coppola's courtroom drama pitting the little guy against a large corporation. Rudy Baylor (Matt Damon), an inexperienced Memphis lawyer, and his legal sidekick, Deck Schifflet (Danny DeVito), defend a leukemia victim against an insurance company and its hotshot lawyer Leo Drummond (Jon Voight). Along the way Rudy befriends an abused woman (Claire Danes), helping her escape her husband (Andrew Shue). The courtroom scenes between Damon and Voight are the highlight of this legal yarn as Rudy learns the tough price of being a good lawyer.
