Michael Clayton

I'm not sure what other people have been watching when it comes to Michael Clayton, there must be another movie out there of the same name! Yes it was my turn to pick and I went for the old fashioned thriller movie this past Saturday afternoon. First there is no way you could fill even 1 hour let alone 2 hours with this movie. My girlfriend and I found it to be both predictable, as the subplots were obvious and weak as well as plain old slow! George was good in parts but certainly nowhere near what some critics have described as an "Oscar nod" performance. Sydney Pollack was excellent, more of him, a more "minder" type personality for George with some better writing and this movie could have been great. Unfortunately it fell short, way short...try renting the recently released...RATATOUILLE, you will at least have chuckle instead of feeling like you've been overcharged at a very fancy French Restaurant (seeing as you ran straight home for a bowl of cereal).
Pros: None
Cons: all 2 hours of it
