Michael Clayton (Widescreen Edition) 214 reviews
George Clooney, Tilda Swinton
Warner Home Video, 2008
A top notch thriller
+ Worth it
+ Huzzah for lawyers
George Clooney portrays a really pushed to the wall attorney which
portrays a modern day possible situation which may be happening right
in our own back yard. This film keeps you on the edge of your seat with
just a minimum of tapering off of action so you may catch your breath.

The Firm 82 reviews
Tom Cruise, Jeanne Tripplehorn
Paramount Home Video, 2000
Excellent, engrossing, substantial complexity --
+ It gets a little messy towards the end, but it's still nothing short of exciting...
+ THE FIRM
and one of Gene Hackman's greatest performances. The man is so real, and the character so believable, you'd think Hackman were the character. Except he isn't, because the character is a hackman, while Hackman is an extraordinary actor.
Probably Cruise's best performance, better than in "Color ...

Kramer vs. Kramer59 reviews
Dustin Hoffman, Meryl Streep
Sony Pictures, 2001
A poignant tale of growth and parenthood that still brings tears today...
+ Another key cultural artifact
+ "Sometimes Mommy and Daddy Don't Get Along..."
There are many films about the deterioration of the marriage arrangement, but very few of them can reach the levels of emotional attachment that `Kramer vs. Kramer' manages to grasp hold of. To say that `Kramer vs. Kramer' doesn't still resonate today is a miscalculation if you ask me, for even if ...

This is a fantastic movie. Al Pacino doesn't get the credit he deserves. He was amazing as Satan. Keanu Reeves was good and Charlize Theron is gorgeous.
