This week on Netflix Roulette, we review Michael Clayton. Written and directed by acclaimed screenwriter Tony Gilroy, it is one of the best directorial debuts we’ve ever witnessed. A slick, soberingly realistic legal thriller, carried on the shoulders of the wonderful talents of George Clooney, Tilda Swinton, Sydney Pollack and one of the best character actors in the business, the brilliant Tom Wilkinson, Michael Clayton swallows you up in its dark world of corporate immorality, life-threatening legal intrigues and sheer ruthlessness of hired guns in perfect suits. What we have before us is a story that steers clear from the pretentious course of complacent didacticism: the film is scripted so sharply and acted so generously that the tension and suspense slowly build up without even giving us a chance to fully grasp the meaning of every spoken word, without offering us the luxury of predicting what these amazingly developed characters might do or say next.
