The Informant!


A far too understated knot of confusion that plays out like a Coens movie only without any snappy dialogue, unique characters or a sense of fun.

  1. I liked this a lot more than Al, but I did listen to a documentary about the guy, so that may have set me up nicely for it.

    Laughed out loud several times, and I especially liked Matt Damon's voicever which, instead of explaining what he was up to, was just about whatever random shit was going through his mind. Soderberg did a good job telling a very complicated and potentially dull story so clearly.

    Plus Scott Bakula! Good to have you back.

  2. I found it a thoroughly enjoyable, odd little movie. It started very slow and I wasn't enjoying it, but it gradually got funnier and funnier. Damon was quite excellent.
