4.0 out of 5 stars Judd Rocks! April 15 2004
By A Customer
Format:DVD
This was the film that proved Judd Nelson could really stand on his own. During the brat pack films he always seemed to dissolve in the background but From the Hip forces you to pay attention to Judd's comedic charm. Judd plays a lawyer a little over his head and too starved for attention. He illegally wins his first case only to turn around and find the hardest case of his life, a major murder. The first half of the film is straight comedy but the second turns dramatic and dark as John Hurt ( the film's murder suspect ) brings us into his disturbing world of being impotent and the fact that he may have killed a young woman. Judd shines in this like only he can and if there is one film any Judd Nelson fan should see at least once, it is From The Hip. I highly recommend it so enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars surprizing twists and turns Jan 23 2004
By A Customer
Format:DVD
This movie entranced me on the first viewing. You see, it begins with young,cocky lawyers trying to get ahead. Two of them work at a highly reguarded law-firm. In a trail that to say the least is comical we are led down a path thinking the movie will be light and funny. Suddenly, with the second trial the viewer is thrust deep into a murder trial! The defendent is a quirky, wierd scary type who seems smarter than the young lawers but also crazy at the same time. the movie gets more and more serious as we find out the killer is trying to force people to his will. The young lawyer is caught between a rock and a hard place. IF he gets the creep off he knows a killer got away with it. If he lets the truth come out he could lose his carreer. The swing of emotions from the comic trial to the serious ending is about a dramatic as any movie I have ever seen. I still havent had another film drag me to laughter and then fear. Highly recommened.

4.0 out of 5 stars Where'd the 80s go? Dec 1 2003
Format:DVD
David E. Kelley's magical scripting in Ally McBeal was predated by this early Judd Nelson star vehicle, somewhat fresh off his "Breakfast Club" fame. While it's completely preposterous that any lawyers would be able to bark at judges and defendants alike, you can't deny this is an entertaining movie.

It's a bit talky at times, and the ending is somewhat anti-climactic, but it's got a few things going for it; the script, a decent mix of comedy and drama, and John Hurt as the ambiguous Douglas Benoit--his best role since his turn as "Caligula" of "I, Claudius" fame.
