Duplicity

DrIanMalcolmDrIanMalcolm Registered User regular
edited March 2009 in Social Entropy++
So Tony Gilroy, the director of the fantastic film Michael Clayton, has a new film out

Wikipedia wrote:
Two corporate spies (Owen and Roberts) team up to manipulate a corporate race to corner the market on a medical innovation that will reap huge profits and enable them to lead an extravagant lifestyle together.

Here are five clips from the film

These guys are in it too.

To talk any more about the plot would spoil the fun of the movie, which is quite good. Though some people might be turned off because of this, you do have to pay attention to what's happening onscreen (especially in the first half-hour) to really understand everything. Gilroy doesn't spoon-feed the audience information that much and the dialogue is pretty fast (like His Girl Friday fast).

So go out and see this

    I'm never seeing this movie because I'm done going to movies and saying "I guess I'll see if I can suffer through clive owen" and then spending the entire movie going "god damn it clive owen go eat a dick"

    has anyone seen Cypher?

    it's a good flick

    same kind of commercial espionage idea but much darker.

    Cherry Cola by Eagles of Death Metal is a fucking great song.

    Also: This movie will likely bum me right the fuck out.

    Ah, yes. Corporate thieves. That appeals to me right now!

    the international made me thing about the responsibility we have to watch banks because they're probably at the center of a worldwide conspiracy

    I like Clive Owen but this movie looks terrible.

    Also, Owen is way too good looking for Julia Roberts at any age.
