The Rainmaker aside from being competently made is not something that stands out for being fresh.April 09, 2005
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.June 18, 2002
Coppola adapted the novel himself, and he's done a good job of paring it down.February 08, 2003
Grisham and Coppola (who also adapted the story for the screen) attempt to show us a piece of life, and though the lesson is a bit heavy-handed at times, it does capture the fact that things just don't always work out perfectly in the end.February 14, 2001
Coppola has infused The Rainmaker with enough humor, character, honest emotion and storytelling style to make it one of the year's most entertaining movies.May 26, 2006
The Rainmaker is easily the best of the Grisham movies so far, and it has touches of excellence, but it's a routine work.

Coppola has never been particularly known for his comic touch, but here he seems bent on leavening the melodrama with as many laughs as possible, and they are generally honest and well-earned.

The overbearing soundtrack, unimaginative cinematography, and indulgently tear-jerking ending ... this all adds up to a surprisingly derivative movie from Coppola.January 01, 2000
Francis Ford Coppola, who wrote and directed the film, has made the most of Grisham's ground-level realism.

A good example of a talented filmmaker making a small miracle out of a film that was destined for drowning in mediocrity.February 09, 2006
This competent, anonymous legal drama (scripted by Michael Herr) is the best John Grisham adaptation yet.January 01, 2000
Satisfactory mainstream entertainment, with a handful of major actors in juicy minor roles tossed in for good measure.
