i liked the last part where he shouts "see it." and looks all pissed off.

Great review, and I loved the movie too!

[LightsCameraAaron]

Loved the film, excellent drama throughout.

That's Lorenzo Semple Jr. He wrote for Batman in the 60s. Who better to do a web show like this!

@yoson25 LOL! I agree.

Lawyers come to learn the most dangerous person often is ... the client. There is a convention that counsel never stay in a room alone with a client ... because they want a witness to keep the client in check. Also if you read John Grisham's The Street Lawyer you will notice a similar legal ethics issue about a client's confidential evidence. Technically the Swinton character is right, the memo is property of the client, and the lawyers are supposed to resign quietly ...it's a worry.

Dudes, I'm a lawyer and you old geezers are so right. I will get it out again this weekend. I saw GC grab for red carpet this Oscars and he was asked the embarrassing question, and he predicted Jeff would win. The man has class, above money. And that's what I like. 3 Days .... was kind of good too ....! Damn good!

I miss you guys

I didn't know Lorenzo wrote "Three Days of the Condor". I just thought you were just YouTubers who seemed to know a lot about movies!

I LOVED "Michael Clayton," and I especially liked Tom Wilkinson's performance. It was not marketed well at all. Clooney and Tilda Swinton were great as well.

I'm watching your reviews on Oscar night because I actually like movies.

I've watched it three times now and I still dont get any clues or even subtle hints that Marty is somehow connected to U/North and Karen. The only clue may have been that Marty had Authors brief bag when the others could not locate it in the scene in Milwakee. But, if it's meant to be a clue, it's so subtle that its leaves most unaware that there is any connection between Marty(Pollack) and U/North. I just don't see it that way.
