Review of The Player (1992) by Edward Guthmann for San Francisco Chronicle — 04 Jan 2005
What makes The Player the best and boldest American comedy in years is Altman's wizardry at leavening anger with cathartic wit. He sticks it to every target, himself and us included, with a wicked zest that hurts only when you laugh -- and The Player keeps you laughing constantly.
