Movie propaganda

Trials are too important to be decided by juries.

A member of the jury for an explosive trial against a gun manufacturer joins forces with a beautiful woman to take subtle control of the panel. With millions of dollars at stake in the precedent-setting lawsuit, the mysterious jurist finds himself battling a high-priced and ruthless jury "consultant" who will stop at nothing to secure a verdict.

Theatrical report

Runaway jury is an extended episode of Law & order with a bit of Mission: Impossible thrown in. Gene Hackman is over the top, John Cusack is bland (almost bored) and Rachel Weisz is unsettling. It's good if you like mindless courtroom dramas.
