Gary J @RT39779352 Sep 10, 2026 Swinton won for best supporting, but I think George Clooney’s performance was so spot on that he deserved an Oscar. Though she did an excellent job, and I can’t fault her performance. This is a superbly done story of intrigue, lunacy, loyalty and some very bad decisions that lead to a satisfying climax. I loved this movie, and have seen it several times. Excellent writing, acting and direction all around. See more bruce F @bruce999 Aug 3, 2026 nice drama. worth viewing. i've watched it 3 times...i love it. don't pass it by. it's under-rated See more Jonathan B @RT43918092 Jul 9, 2026 One of the best films of the 2000s, and probably Clooney’s best acting performance. Shades of 70s/80s thrillers such as Absence of Malice and Network. Those who enjoy such conspiracy movies will like this one, and can take multiple viewings to put all the pieces together. The plot only becomes more topical with every story of corporate malfeasance and corruption that plagues our news headlines. See more W.L. C. @WayneCampbell Jun 27, 2026 "Michael Clayton" is one of the films I missed while working two jobs to keep my family out of destitution 20 years ago. I finally got around to it; I probably could've waited another 20. I'm all for a slow burn, but this is a pot that never boils. A stacked cast in a tepid film. The score is reminiscent of a lullaby and the color palette is so beige it may as well be wallpaper in a vacant hospital. Tony Gilroy is a gifted writer, but this one is a wet fart at best. See more Costantino D. @CosMovies May 28, 2026 Masterpiece in every way. See more Jeff C @Popsstargell79 May 8, 2026 A perfect film. The writing is superb and the performances from Clooney, Wilkinson, Swinton, Pollack are sublime. See more Read all reviews
