Michael Clayton

8.4/10 stinky bananas

Well executed thriller with some excellent acting to boot.

Clooney is great in the whole movie, but the "you're so fucked" scene at the end is incredible. Clooney smashed it.

Gripe time! The family subplot is irrelevant and annoying. I don't give a fuck about this guy's kid or his ex-wife or his brother. Cut it out of the movie.

Gripe No. 2: I'm no cop but I don't think you can pronounce a guy dead because he tossed his wallet and watch into a burning car. Usually there's a melted corpse or something. I realize it's a nitpick but it bothered me.

Anyway, great movie. Give it a watch. Clooney classic.
