Sooo don't like these things. Oh well, I'm a girl, a blond, a smart one. I love reading, I have a project in workings about how I'm gonna read all fantasy classics, we'll see how it goes. I've so far read about 100. I cook fairly well, I have addiction to smoking and history. I have some good friends, a cat and a loving family. No 'significant other' at the moment, though. And I love my life. |

Excellent, impressing, magnificent and so very, very disturbing. It leaves a deep imprint in a person.

I recommend you see...
Michael Clayton
by SpiderAs a fan of Clooney generally, and Tony Gilroy's skillfull manipulation of the Bourne reboot, I was eager to see this film and it is a feast for drama fans. The cast is excellent; Clooney's self-destructive, world weary protagonist is a nice mirror of his Three Kings role earlier in his career; Swinton is, as always, excellent and highly watchable; and Wilkinson lends his likeable theatrics to another of his larger-than-life characters. Gilroy's direction is good also, the tight underplayed dialogue full of meaningful glances and cutaways, although the films pacing is a little meandering and the flashback format is ultimately unnecessary. It's a shame then, that the film feels so hollow throughout and even the titular character's victory doesn't seem to satisfy him all that much in the same way that it doesn't satisfy the audience. There's never any doubt in your mind that Clooney will come out on top from the outset, but the road travelled to that victiory should be more gripping and the revelation that corporations are greedy thug-like entities that will stop at nothing to get their way is not news in today's climate. On the whole, the film is very enjoyable but should be so much more, justifying all those Oscar nominations, and feels a little like it was made ten years too late, losing any of it's shock value.
