Transcript of Featured Review

Wide screen version this was directed by Tony Gilroy and this is his debut directing. He worked as a writer in some rather films like Bourne Ultimatum so he's somewhat experience but you know he really hasn't done a film before so It stars George Clooney and Tilda Swinton who you might have known from Constantine she's one of the main angels in it. And she also won an Oscar for her work in the Michael Clayton as best supporting female actress I think. And basically the whole plot is that George Clooney is a fixer for this huge law firm and they're working on a case where Tilda Swinton one of the head executives and there's a class action lawsuit against them so they're representing Tilda Swinton's company. The thing though is that that the main attorney goes business in some room and he goes crazy and now he's got to come in and fix it. First of I'd like to say that there's a lot of Oscar buzz about this movie they got nominated for best picture and George Clooney and Tilda Swinton were off for awards for best actor and actress categories. And I got to say it's not exactly words of Oscar buzz I mean it's a great movie don't get me wrong. But it's not as good as somebody's like No Country for Old men so I'm gonna have to say it is this is still a great movie though. One of the best things I liked about this movie is the atmosphere Tony Gilroy does a really great job kind of sending up this mystical atmosphere especially he did use it as the beginning to set this up very well. I think you'll see when you watch the movie how that really works for the whole theme of the movie there's a lot of blue in it and I think the blue is kind of a nice for some bluish gray kind of have a matrix that's kinda green but then the matrix are blue and they're not you kind of get that blue feeling all throughout this movie. So I would still rate this movie 5 star it's a great movie but if you're looking at a broader scale it's not exactly the best movie ever. So here are a few clips from the movie. Here's the opening DVD screen for this movie you can tell the music it goes into some of music into this movie it's pretty good it sets up the theme of this got the scenes here and try to find just a little bit you know go to the filed and then we get a little bit of the atmosphere (video playing). Fast forward a little bit here so we get to the . So that's Michael Clayton on DVD and I rate that 5

Summary
Attorney Michael Clayton is a ?fixer? the go-to guy when his powerful New York law firm wants a mess swept under the rug. But now he?s handed a crisis even he may not be able to fix. The firm?s top litigator in a $3-billion case has gone from advocate to whistleblower. And the more Michael tries to undo the damage the more he?s up against forces that put corporate survival over human life ? including Michael?s. George Clooney portrays Michael backed into a career corner that offers little room to fight free in this suspense- and star-packed thriller written and directed by Tony Gilroy (writer/co-writer of the Bourne movie trilogy). Keep your eyes on Michael Clayton. He has some life-or- death decisions to make.
