George Clooney freely admits that "Ocean's Twelve" was made in order to ensure that both this and "Syriana" saw the light of day. Perhaps this is a case of making a silk purse out of a sow's ear. It is heartening to see something of use coming out of that.

"Good Night & Good Luck" seems, on the surface, to be a film about the witch hunts of Joseph McArthy against perceived threat of communism in America. The film traces journalist Ed Murrow's televisual campaign to discredit the committee set up to investigate this and also McArthy himself. Using newsreel footage to illustrate McArthy's interrogations highlights his approach excellently and also highlights the film's liberal tendencies, but this film isn't a critique on ... Read More:

Leatherheads is one of the most enjoyable films of the year. It's both a homage to football before it became big business and to 30s/40s comedies. The chemistry between Zellweger and Clooney works fine nad they have some great scenes together both in terms of comedy and unsentimental romance. The film is well written, perfect timing and an altogether nice balance of elements. I particularly liked how Clooney poked gentle fun at his own age. Visually, Leatherheads is one of the most elegant films I have ever seen with a dominance of warm colours. The costumes are absolutely awesome. Randy Newman yet again delivers a superb soundtrack (and a delightful cameo experience

Screenwriter Charlie Kaufman and first-time director George Clooney take us on a trip into the bizarre mind of American TV game show host Chuck Barris with this one. Barris, not content with being known as the creative mind behind TV pap like The Dating Game and The Gong Show, also claimed he was a hitman for the CIA. The film follows Barris's story from his perspective, so as we see him acheiving his various successes in television we also travel around the world with him as he shoots people and meets with shady figures from the spy world. Clooney and Kaufman make no judgements on whether Barris's claims are true - that's for you to decide.

If nothing else, this film is a spectacular calling card for Sam Rockwell, who puts his great charisma ... Read More:

DVD : Good Night, and Good Luck. [2006] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
The title is a little misleading; I expected to see the biography of this great commentator. This film chronicles the short period of time where Edward R. Murrow attacked Senator Joseph McCarthy. During this same period the junior Senator was using unwarranted tactics to ferret out communist in America. The movie makes it look like Mr. Murrow was responsible for the Senate investigation of Senator McCarthy and that is not true. President Eisenhower and the U.S. Army have that honor.

Edward R. Murrow was one of American television's most famous journalists and worked for CBS Television. The movie shows how the social contract that the broadcasting companies had with America started to change. Mr. Murrow, who was a great journalist, decided to use his show ... Read More:
