voice mentioned that when he walked out of the company door, he found his past like a rain of evil feces falling on him, this kind of thing Completely destroyed his life. And he decided to do something.
In one game, Michael Clayton left after getting a call. He got a call from a colleague of lawyers who asked him to help him with a case where his important client ran into someone and got away. Michael went to the scene to check the condition of the car, and clearly told the client that there was no other way but to contact the police and find a criminal lawyer to deal with it. The client was very unhappy, but Michael's words left him with no choice. Michael left the house and drove into the field and saw three horses on a small hill. He got out of the car to see the three horses, and the car exploded right behind him.
The story goes back to four days ago. Michael went to pick up his child for class, and the child in the car kept asking him to read a book. He came to a bidding ground where the bar he and his brother had invested in was auctioning off the remaining items. A man came up to him and told him he still owed $75,000, but Michael said he had no more money left.
Karen Crowder, general counsel at U-North, an agricultural company, was speaking to the media about her takeover as president and the direction of a recent compensation case. The visit was suddenly interrupted, and something big had happened.
Michael came to the prison in Milwaukee to pick up a colleague, U-North's lead attorney, Arthur Edens, to be released. He stripped naked at a meeting with teller Anna and said he loved her. In prison, Arthur kept talking about how much he had done for U-North, only to turn him into Shiva, the god of destruction. Knowing he had a history of mental illness, Michael questioned the fact that he didn't take his meds on time to cause the neurosis. He picked Michael up to the hotel, ready to send him back. That night, Michael's son called him, but Michael wasn't there and Arthur answered. The two chatted on the phone about a novel "Realm and Conquest", and Arthur liked the seemingly crazy but normal plot of the characters. At this time, Michael was explaining to Karen in the restaurant that Arthur's situation was an accident, but Karen left without agreeing. Back at the office, Karen opens the stolen Arthur's suitcase, knowing how much damage Arthur's materials can do to U-North. She decided to hire experts to solve the problem.
The next morning, Michael found Arthur escaping through the window.
Arthur wandered around, and even called the previous informant, Anna, to provide her with evidence to reverse the case, but did not know that his apartment had been invaded earlier, and many bugs had been set. At this time, Michael sought the help of the supervisor Marty because of the debt problem. Marty mentioned that Arthur had been in contact with the teller.
Michael finally met Arthur, who was heading home with a load of French bread. He questioned why Arthur was in contact with the teller, which elicited strong distrust from Arthur, who thought the person in front of him was hostile to his position. When he got home, he deliberately kept reading the poison test report on his hand to all the bugs, indicating that U-North knew that the product was harmful but still sold it to the consumer public. Karen overhears the recording and orders the two to kill Arthur and disguise himself as suicide. Because the crime scene was set up as a secret room, the police believed this statement.
A group of people discussed the dead Arthur at the reception. Marty thought it was definitely an accident. Arthur couldn't have killed himself without leaving a few words, but he also believed that people were inherently unreasonable. Michael called Anna's house, and her sister answered the phone and scolded Michael for leaving her at the airport after tricking her into New York. Michael got the address from his sister, went to the hotel to find Anna, and found that Arthur had bought her a first-class cabin for her to meet, and there was no reason to suddenly commit suicide. He and his brother, another police officer, got the seal and broke into Arthur's place to check. He saw the book Realm and Conquest, and found the receipt inside the book, which was about a photocopying book. The two killers who had been watching outside the window for a long time called the police. Michael was arrested on the grounds of breaking into the murder scene. Fortunately, his brother kept him out.
Michael came to the photocopying shop with the receipt and found that Arthur had printed dozens of boxes of booklets. The title of the cover read "Realm and Conquest". Inside was the inspection report of U-North products. The killer behind was also looking at Michael. Red book in hand. Michael went back to the company, and Marty gave him 80,000 as a bonus and made him sign another three-year work contract, as well as a nondisclosure agreement to make sure he didn't say anything about Arthur.
Michael paid off the debt and took a small gamble. The story goes back to the beginning of the story. The two killers outside the door were installing trackers and bombs on his car. Michael left the casino because he was about to answer the phone, so the killers only half loaded and fled. He then went to an important client that his colleague asked for assistance, and drove away after talking. Michael came and went, and because the device was incomplete, the killers couldn't accurately grasp his whereabouts. When Michael got out of the car to see the horse, the killer detonated the bomb, Michael returned to the car, threw his wallet, watch and belongings into the car and fled the woods, and asked his brother who was in debt to take him home.
Karen breathed a sigh of relief when news of Michael's death reached colleagues. She successfully persuaded the board to face a telling solution in the future, briefly explaining how the company could win the case without spending a dime. She walked out of the venue, not expecting Michael, who should be dead, to be waiting outside. Michael seriously asked why Karen did all this, killing Arthur and then taking his life? Why put to death someone who could be bought for $80,000 and a three-year contract? Karen looked at his hand , decided to accept Michael's request for 10 million to buy him. After hearing Karen's answer, Michael said "you're fucked" and took a picture of her with the flipped phone. The police stepped forward and surrounded Karen and the president of U-North, and Michael handed the phone to his younger brother.
Michael got in a taxi and gave the driver $50 to drive anywhere...
=============================== ===========================
an hour before belonging to elaborate, half an hour later entered the stage of understanding the mystery of the story, the last half hour of complete consistency The plot of the whole film. As the plot progresses, we see that the protagonist moves from a lawyer who looks good and is actually in debt to a coordinator of interests and interests in the boss's mouth. Not only does he reverse the whole situation, he helps the victim whose cancer cells proliferate due to eating poisonous agricultural products, but also helps his colleague Arthur. Taking revenge, it also proved that he is not a greedy person. I was inexplicably moved by the scene of walking away from Karen at the end, probably because a little human could resist the temptation of huge money just to help a dead friend fulfill his wish!
George Clooney, who plays Michael Clayton as the male lead, is very vivid here. It is the best acting I have ever seen in his movies. Tilda Swinton, who plays Karen, has a very impressive look and movement between tension and relaxation. Especially the finger-biting scene; Tom Wilkinson, who plays Arthur, is a veteran actor, from the beginning with a crazy voice to the end of the crazy but sane performance is very convincing. The scene of his death continued on him for dozens of seconds, which made people feel that the director was a bit cruel...
Overall it was nice, but throwing things in the car made people believe that Michael died in the car. I compare It's unacceptable, I don't think it's so easy for the police to determine a person's death. Other than that, it's probably because the three horses came out a little abruptly, but of course it's also possible that Michael just wanted to see these three horses on purpose. All in all, it's a fun and terrifying movie.
