Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
Freaktana A Major Disappointment
Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
mistramicizia I actually watched this movie by recommendation from someone else, and the movie met my expectations. I've never been a fan of movies revolving around lawyers, but I do enjoy movies about solving cases and exposing. So, the two elements mixed promise fun. The movie is not in any moment dull and there's always something new that occurs which sometimes seems as if you're watching a real thriller. The acting raised the bar in this movie. It was believable and showing a large range of emotions through witty dialogue. I'm not saying it was unbelievably fantastic, but it was just fine and people of different tastes could enjoy watching this.DISCLAIMER : Everything stated in this review is entirely matter of personal opinion and doesn't have to coincide with the opinions of other reviewers
vrdmartin The chillingest murder scene you're ever likely to see on screen. The epitome of corporate murder.....
Rich Rossi There aren't many movies that I enjoy watching twice or more, this is certainly one of them. This is in the running to be my favorite movie of all time. This movie can be hard to follow, and can seem vulgar at times, but in reality the dialogue has a higher purpose: to illustrate how we can get lost in our personal objectives and lose track of the bigger picture. The majority of characters in this movie don't fall into the "good guy", "bad guy" category, they are various shades of gray, just like real people. If one puts themselves in the shoes of the characters, their actions are plausible and consistent with reality. If you don't want to have your brain challenged by a time-line that bounces around and a complicated story that requires the viewer to put the pieces together you might want to save this for another night, but don't miss it, it's an incredible piece of writing and filmmaking.
witherby23 "Successful white men in thrillingly unique situations, starring George Clooney performing ordinary acts like pressing car alarms or having stare competitions with his costarring, monologuing actors." Is a clearer,more edited title, if there be a soul,dwelling on our shared rock whizzing through infinite dim unknowns, has a pinch of curiosity to thy above summary. A summary that, in my worthless opinion, encapsulates this two hour background nose for my grandma who can't fall asleep without a television within twelve feet of her. Bright Points! It is a interesting complex, carefully complicated, Hollywood built script; but with 2007 Hollywood comes all its districts, embarrassingly blatant jelly rolls. What I mean by this is mainly based off the films white washed cast, headed by Mr.A lister, George Clooney, as his salt & pepper sexy self, but this time he's "fixer" with some deep down feelings behind his big beautiful soul windows! For whatever reason just about every character is built with their own outer brash confidence, shown through intense star downs and hard monologues that everyone totally kills. Last words: Interesting story, if you want to get into it, but don't be in a rush to throw "Michael Clayton" at the top of your watch list.
