Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

gjmounties Jesus just call this movie The Big Kahuna light. I saw all this in character development first 20 minutes then quit watching. Keaton-call mom show his soft underbelly ....Frasier copy of Mormon guy. Blah Blah Blah. Total copy. Nough said. Good news is you'll sell enough copies to lazy sales managers to show their flunky crew cause it's a sales movie with a certain percentage market. Sigh.

pepekwa This movie didn't know if it was a dark comedy or a thriller or a drama or all three, a better. more experienced director may have been able to blend them all together.What also disappointed me here was the twist after the twist, it should have ended with keaton realizing he had been scammed but again, we have to have a Hollywood ending so in the final scene keaton goes back to school smiling like nothing happened.I didn't see the main twist coming which is always a plus point, I thought there would be a revenge ending but on reflection, its quite implausible what Fraser and Valetta's characters did.Nevertheless if you don't think about this too much, its an OK rainy day movie. I watched it for free on comcast's on demand service which I wouldn't recommend as there are ads for TNT programing every 10 minutes and all the swear words are cut which i didn't like.

harbeau ...before this film hit the production level.I SUSPECT that this script was well-done. (though I couldn't find a copy of it anywhere.) The acting is what we would expect from top-tier actors. The directing seems excellent. But I suspect that somewhere between the film getting in the can and getting out the doorway......someone went at it with scissors. Or a blow torch. Either way, the race to the ending seems rushed and convoluted. Parts seem to be missing. Other parts don't seem to follow in order. Some parts are just plain missing.Gotta hate those movies that end with you shaking your head and telling yourself "What the *@$ was that?" I felt sorry for those people that worked on the movie.

LaserLounge I usually agree pretty much with the IMDb-Ratings but in this case I find it really amazing that it only gets 6.3 points (08/07). Okay, sometimes when you don't expect too much (because of poor ratings you get surprised and tend to overrate it. I give it a perfect ten anyway. Why? This is a wonderfully drafted/crafted drama thriller with excellent acting (especially Michael Keaton). The twists are fantastic and so are the dialogue. (I envy the screenwriter and will keep track of the director's career, too!) It delivers a great insight into the everyday life of an (unsuccessful) salesman. If you loved Wall Street and have a soft spot for B movies, you will like this one even more than Wall Street. Watch it!
