The trial being Hollywood-ized wouldn't surprise me a bit. They had the lawyers going back and forth on cross-examinations that didn't seem real at all.

Granted, I never sat in a murder trial with heavy political implications, but yeah, it was pretty far-fetched. I never saw anybody act up or lose their shit the way lawyers and witnesses alike did in this movie. But up until the very end it was at least vaguely plausible.
If you compare the Few Good Men trial to the bus in Speed, most of the trial is like the bus maintaining 50 mph through all the obstacles - the ending is like the bus jumping the missing section.
