** Spoiler alert! **
It’s impossible to discuss this movie without giving away the ending. Suffice to say, it misleads in the most clever way -- not by twisting the PLOT, though there’s plenty of that, but by twisting the THEME. The moral of the story is a whopper, and it comes out of nowhere. And like Michael Clayton, Tony Gilroy’s previous outing, you have to wait until the final scene to hear what it’s really about. Owen and Roberts are pros and deliver all their expertise to this full-court deception. It’s smart and enjoyable.
