Review of Michael Clayton (2007) by Stuart M — 26 Feb 2011

I must say, this movie was average at its best. The one thing that shines in this movie are the three oscar nominated performances by Clooney, Wilkinsin and Swinton. Yet the story is remarkably simple and unimaginative, especially for a movie that has been Oscar nominated.

I found the pacing of the movie to be a bit clumsy, especially the beginning and forming of the movie's core conflict is very uncraftly introduced. Anyway, if you are into Law-dramas, this one is for you.

I'd rather go for classic courtroom movies like "A few good men" or "presumed innocent".
