Michael Clayton
I was in the mood to see if Hollywood was still putting out something interesting as far as law thrillers went. To my surprise, they didn’t do too bad keeping things fresh. This movie stars George Clooney (I don’t think I have to tell you any of his previous movies), Tilda Swinton (Chronicles of Narnia), and Tom Wilkinson (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind). Clayton (Clooney) plays a fixer; a person who understands the law and in a clinch can bring on the perfect lawyer for any case for his firms clientele.
Unfortunately for him his personal life needs fixing as well. To make matters worse, one of his firms long lasting cases just suffered from one of the attorneys (Wilkinson) breakdown. Through the course of this movie, Michael is forced to not only try to keep Wilkinson together, but keep defense attorney Karen Crowder (Swinton) from gaining the upper hand, and saving his own personal life from going down in flames.

This is also one of the few movies that actually held true to its hype which in today’s world is a very hard process to achieve.
Great setting, good cast of characters, and a well translated from graphic novel onto cinema writing. For those of you who don’t know, this movie is based on the graphic novel created by Steve Niles. Although the setting is different in the comic series, the story translates even better onto screen…. Read more

The plot revolves around a Charlie, a dentist who was cursed as a child to never find love. Each time he sleeps with a woman she becomes destined to find the man of her dreams and get married. This leads to lots of very interesting sexual encounters…. Read more
