While George Clooney fans will say this movie was excellent, we thought it was forgettable.. definitely not Oscar nomination material (it was nominated by the way.. why? This I can’t tell you).
The story tells of a man whose job it is, to fly around the world firing people on behalf of companies who are unwilling to do their own dirty work.
Clooney is this man, lonely but professional, he cares little for human relationships and places value on... on nothing really.
It’s a hard film, difficult to get into and quite frankly it leaves you feeling grateful that you aren’t him.
If thought provoking melodrama’s are your thing- see it. Otherwise leave it for the die-hard cinema goers.
We rate this film 2 out of 5.
