Thank You For Smoking

[Rick Meyer]

I just saw this on DVD today. EXCELLENT! I think this is going to be Aaron Eckharts breakout role. It was perfect for him.

This movie was top notch. It moved and the pacing was excellent. It was tongue and cheek when it needed to be (due to its touchy subject, the tongue and cheecky feel was pretty effective). And, without making you sympathize with the hero (Aaron Eckhart...who played a Tobacco Lobbyist) it made you empathasize with him and his plight without ever making you feel like lighting up. It treaded the line of making him a likable character but never letting you truly forget that smoking is bad.

It's an excellent flick.

I had a feeling that movie would be good. The acting looked superb and there was a real authentic quality to the story. Is it in theatre's now or has it been released to DVD?
