    (Dec 2006 Director: Steven Solderbergh) Well acted...Cate Blanchett (Really?) She was amazing in this role!! memorial line (hers), "You can never really get out of Berlin." Set in post-W W II Germany (1945) in East Berlin in the between the American ruled German sector and the Russian sectors Taut portrayals of a lingering mystery by George Clooney with Beau Bridges as a Commander & Dave Power wodnerfu;l in his military role. FILMED IN BLACK AND WHITE with some actual news reels from the time period. EXCELLENT! BELIEVABLE!!

    Despite the black and white presentation of the movie which did take at least 10-15 mins to get used to I thought the whole movie was very nicely done. The acting by Cate Blanchett was amazing! Although I was disappointed with Tobey Maguire; he shouldn't take roles like these, especially after he has played the "ever humble" Peter Parker. And the plot was quite intriguing as well.

    When I first saw then Good German, I thought it was a very good modern noir. I can't believe all the bad critical and audience feedback it's receiving.To me it's one of the most underated films of 2006, along with Miami Vice.
