Extras:
Michael Clayton (George Clooney) is an in-house "fixer" at one of the largest corporate law firms in New York. At the behest of the firm's co-founder Marty Bach (Sydney Pollack), Clayton, a former prosecutor from a family of cops, takes care of Kenner, Bach & Ledeen's dirtiest work. Clayton cleans up clients' messes, handling anything from hit-and-runs and damaging stories in the press to shoplifting wives and crooked politicians. Though burned out and discontented in his job, Clayton is inextricably tied to the firm.
At the agrochemical company U/North, the career of in-house chief counsel Karen Crowder (Tilda Swinton) rests on the settlement of the suit that Kenner, Bach & Ledeen is leading to a seemingly successful conclusion. When the firm's top litigator, the brilliant Arthur Edens (Tom Wilkinson), has an apparent breakdown and tries to sabotage the entire case, Marty Bach sends Michael Clayton to tackle this unprecedented disaster and, in doing so, Clayton comes face to face with the reality of who he has become.

Sleuth Movie Review
It's hard to term this as a remake of the 1972 film Sleuth, an adaptation by Anthony Shaffer of his own play. That movie pitted Michael Caine in the role of Tindle against Laurence Olivier's Wyke to brilliant success.

Run Fatboy Run Movie Review
Initially I was a bit worried about seeing this movie. After watching the trailer I was thinking this might become a bit predictable and be very hit and miss... But, Pegg somehow pulls them off and even if you can see them coming they're still funny.
