Reality, movies, not as good as Clayton says

Personally, I don't think this film has a high average rating from everyone here.
Director:
In the process of "the first four days", it took too long - if the final outcome is that Clayton took 10 million;
if Clayton was as righteous as the ending, "the first four days" should not be so delayed;
Actors:
George is not suitable for this film, look for someone who is young and impulsive;
his child thinks that this drama is the most unexpected, especially the novel;
also:
Has the person who wrote the plot introduction watched the movie?
"...a clerk Arthur Edens (Tom Wilkinson) and female litigator Karen Crowder (Tilda Swinton)..."
That Arthur was, was that The best lawyer in the firm, otherwise he wouldn't have been appointed to handle a big case like this, he's not a little trouble, it's something that could bring that firm down;
Karen isn't a lawyer either, it's that farm company's CEO (presumably), not specified in the play, but from the interview at the beginning, and the final board of directors, it is known that she has to present a solution to the actual owners of the company for her position. If you don't understand, go down and ask Adam Smith.
I'm not looking for scumbags. For those who write film reviews, they can write according to their own understanding, and they can even be irrelevant. But don't be so irresponsible when you write a plot introduction.
As for Clayton, he can be said to be a clerk. With his experience, he saves his own time for the lawyers who appear in court and increases the income for the law firm; "special counsel", yes, in the law firm in Hong Kong, he does It is called "Master". Of course, he is a lot more advanced, so it can be said to be "Senior Master".

If you want to tell the dark side of capitalism, the color doesn't have to be so bright, of course, you can also say that it is a manifestation;
if you want to make a commercial film, it may not be able to attract the public;
For a film that exposes human nature, George's psychological process before and after Arthur's death and the bombing of Clayton's car does not reflect his bottom line on the side of justice.

I wanted to shoot this film to a high level, but I didn't manage it well.


ps:
Who said this film is difficult to understand? Difficult to understand? Even before he took out his mobile phone to take a picture at the end, he could already estimate the future outcome. At least I didn't guess once when I watched "zodiac";
who speaks English deeply? Except for a moment when Arthur made the first phone call to talk about the internal documents of the agricultural company, but there was a time when the plot was not damaged, if the others do not understand English, then they will reread it in high school;
who says there is Legal terminology? Yes, not many, and few, not even a professional dictionary.

    The emergence of the three lines of contradiction is a common phenomenon in life. Coupled with the flat and straightforward relationship, the expressiveness of the theme of "opposing" the people in front of them at any time will become weaker. After all, contradictions and opposites are the basis of all scripts and cannot stimulate the sensitivity of the audience.

    153 The rhythm is a little slower after the end of the previous flashback, but after the strip lawyer is done, it will enter a small climax. It is best to watch this film at once, otherwise you will not see the interesting part.

Michael Clayton quotes

    Michael Clayton: Keep the money. You'll need it.

    Don Jefferies: Is this fellow bothering you?

    Michael Clayton: Am I bothering you?

  • Marty Bach: [on a cell phone conversation] Marty Bach, how can I help you?

    Bridget Klein: Marty, hi. It's Bridget Klein. Look, we're going with a story tomorrow about a settlement in the U-North defoliant case. Do you want to comment?

    Marty Bach: The case you're referring to is now as it has been for the last six years: Pending and unresolved. Until such time as our client has their day in court, and the plantiffs come to their senses and drop the suit, I'll have nothing of value to tell you.

    Bridget Klein: Come on Marty, you're closing the U-North case, you're settling it, I know that. Okay? I know you're up there with like 600 people jamming this thing through.

    Marty Bach: Well, here's what I know: Your deadline was twenty minutes ago. So either you're fishing for a story, or you're trying to get out of writing a retraction. In either case I wish you the best of luck.

    [he hangs up]

    Marty Bach: Where the fuck is Karen Crowder?
