Michael Clayton

At first thought, a movie about corporate lawyers and a class action suit sounds kind of dry and boring, but from the opening dialogue to the Chinese gambling den to the end of the film, the mystery and suspense builds and will keep you on the edge of your seat. You get an ominous feeling throughout while trying to piece together the true story here and you’ll meet some extremely scary people that you’ll never want to meet in real life. The performances by the entire cast, which includes George Clooney, Tom Wilkinson, and Tilda Swinton, are terrific. The movie has an outstanding script and some great dialogue. Who is Michael Clayton? He is the company fixer, the janitor who comes in to clean up the ugly messes, and he is really good at it. Ironically, he can’t seem to clean up his own personal life.

Alien gives it 3 ½ “Realm + Conquest” stars out of 4.
