在美国驻古巴关达那摩湾的海军基地,两名海军陆战队员道森和多尼被指控杀害了另一名士兵圣地亚哥。海军律师丹尼尔·卡菲(汤姆·克鲁斯 Tom Cruise 饰)和助手山姆被派接手此桩案件,他们调查到圣地亚哥曾希望调离基地,还举报过道森。卡菲本想进行庭外协调,争取两年刑期。然而 两名士兵坚持自己无罪,他们对圣地亚哥的行为是执行上级给他们下达的“红色条规”。所谓红色条规,就是一种军官默许的由士兵私下进行的训诫条规。 卡菲、山姆以及另一名女律师盖洛维(黛米·摩尔 Demi Moore 饰)组成辩方律师进行调查,而基地指挥官杰塞普上校(杰克·尼科尔森 Jack Nicholson 饰)是本案的关键人物,他拒绝了圣地亚哥的调离申请,对他下达了“红色条规”,事后私自篡改了飞行记录。卡菲虽然知道真相,却苦于证据不足,这种情况下若是指证杰塞普上校还会给自己带来麻烦。这场关乎正义的诉讼案,会有一个怎样的结果

I do know you. Daniel AlliStair Kaffee, born June 8th, 1964 at Boston Mercy Hospital. Your father's Lionel Kaffee, former Navy Judge Advocate and Attorney General, of the United States, died 1985. You went to Harvard Law on a Navy scholarship, probably because that's what your father wanted you to do, and now you're just treading water for the three years you've gotta serve in the JAG Corps, just kinda layin' low til you can get out and get a real job. And if that's the situation, that's fine, I won't tell anyone. But my feeling is that if this case is handled in the same fast-food, slick-ass, Persian Bazaar manner with which you seem to handle everything else, something's gonna get missed. And I wouldn't be doing my job if I allowed Dawson and Downey to spend any more time in prison than absolutely necessary, because their attorney had pre- determined the path of least resistance.
