The Informant!

Matt Damon disappears into this pathological nerd who is greedy for attention and recognition at all costs. Soderbergh uses basic, tried-and-true devices to turn an espionage thriller into a comedy: Zany music, over-the-top characters, and hilariously random inner-monologue narration. Although this movie succeeds on every level it aspires to, the light tone will prevent it from making a big splash. It’s as if Soderbergh et al set-out to prove the frivolity of greed by spinning a dispensable yarn making light of such a humorless subject.
