This review is from: Meet John Doe [Slim Case] (DVD)

Sure, this is one of those idealist and slighly corny movies of old, but it hits home, reflecting the corruption in politics, lack of credibilty in the news media and social injustice that plagues our world today. Well acted and directed, it makes you want to go out there and tell everybody that Joe's a good Joe, and the fat cats are manipulating them, and get back there and fight for what's good and fair. I'm in his corner, and I know you will be, too. (And the whole family can watch this without worry.) An important classic no one should miss.
