Customer Reviews:

  brooding and stylish (06 November 2008)
Really enjoyed this film and I am really am not easy to please (so I am told). No need for me to add words to what other more literate reviewers have said. Really good.

  Solid Thriller- Great Performances (05 November 2008)
The plot outline of "Michael Clayton" is not new. A man who has lost his way finds redemption by doing the right thing in the end.
What sets this apart is the quality of performances and excellent direction. Clooney, Swinton, and Wilkinson are top class.
The director also makes the film more interesting with the relatively slow movement of the plot at the beginning.
There are some great scenes, such as those with Clayton doing his work and forced to bring his son along with him as he has custody for the day.
Swinton well deserved her Oscar for her performance as the lawyer who has gone past the point of return and has no conscience to wrestle with any more.
One complaint would be the ending which is perhaps a bit too swift and tidy.
Overrall though a very good film.

  Engrossing (30 October 2008)
After watching the first 15 to 20 minutes of this film I suspected that I wasnt going to get into this, but bare with it. Its a film that you have to concentrate on to get a full appreciation for. This is a story-driven film so if its action you want ... then you better off with the usual Hollywood trash sort of movie that is easily found. This movie on the otherhand is intelligent and deep. At first it was slow to drag me in but once my interest was gained I had to watch it until the end. You dont get too many film on corporate espionage so the genea doesnt feel tired unlike some other films such as James Bond and the like.

The script is interesting, the acting is very believable from all concerned and the film leaves you with a strong feeling that you need to see the bad guys get their 'just-deserves'. I tried a few times to predict where this film was going, but to its credit I was never able to predict how the story would develop. Great film and worth a buy.

  Who is Michael Clayton? (24 October 2008)
I was given this for my birthday. My wife and I watched it. It should've been a movie we both liked but it wasn't nearly as good as we hoped.

It isn't bad but it is quite slow.

If you really like Mr. Clooney then rent it but otherwise don't bother with purchasing!

  forgettable (20 October 2008)
I'd had it in my head before I even took this out the wrapper that I wouldn't enjoy this, I had bought it purely to prove myself and my mother wrong who had told me beforehand that it was awful. However twenty minutes into the film and I was so bored and confused I had to turn it off!!Many films now insist on having many different stories happening at the same time and very often this can work but sometimes there is a limit to how much someone can take without being totally confused. This is one of those films that not only messes your head up but also leaves an empty, wasted feeling inside your soul. Avoid at all costs!
