About this product

Product Information

Michael Clayton (George Clooney) is what is known in the legal world as a "fixer," or in the character's own pejorative version, a "janitor" who cleans up legal messes for VIPs and corporations on behalf of a prestigious New York City law firm. A former litigator, Clayton has found a niche that capitalizes on his legal acumen and shrewd people skills, and yet, after 13 years on the job, finds himself increasingly disgusted with his clientele. The film covers four pivotal days of his life, in which a midlife crisis and a crisis of conscience neatly converge when he is called in to "fix" a situation unfolding in one of his firm's hottest cases. Brilliant lawyer Arthur Edens (another powerhouse performance by Tom Wilkinson), representing a huge agro-chemical corporation being hit by a class action suit, has a bipolar breakdown, compounded by guilt over his defense of a company that is probably in the wrong, but is wealthy enough to buy its innocence either way. The company's CEO (Tilda Swinton) will stop at nothing to keep Edens from sinking the case. Clayton must decide how much of Edens's mad rebellion against the company is sheer mental illness, how much is true, and how much it will cost him to do the right thing.Clooney delivers a rich performance as a hangdog and haunted man who wants to stay on the side of good, but is a little too skilled at moral margin-walking to make that an easy choice in every situation. Swinton glows as a secretly frail Amazon who somehow won't let a tortured conscience prevent her from getting ahead. The final third of the film is as suspenseful as any courtroom drama, without ever resorting to legal-thriller cliches.

    When you have to take a position for what you believe in…

    Excellent movie – George Clooney is totally convincing as the law firm’s “fixer” finally convinced that he has to take a moral stance. Good used copy at a great price.

  • This Movie Can Be Confusing But Stick It Out!

    Michael Clayton (George Clooney) is all stressed out. He is a trial lawyer, but in his firm he has been placed in the position of a "fixer." A fixer takes care of problems that the firm's clients have gotten themselves into, sometimes illegally. We get the idea early in this 2007 movie when he is called to help a hit and run driver who has all kinds of excuses for what he did--fog, a curving road, a jogger dressed in black who suddenly appeared, poor lighting due to sodium lamps, etc. Michael is considered excellent at what he does. But his personal life is an absolute mess. He is close to bankruptcy due to gambling problems and a bad investment in a bar to help his deadbeat brother. He is a divorced father of a brilliant son; his x-wife has remarried and she has custody. He is ...

  • A Rare Film

    That mixes great acting with a stellar script and shocking scenes left and right..I wa sunsure of this flick at first actually passed on it several times before buying it for $5...George Clooney is great as a trial lawyer reduced to more or less an invetsigating job where he cleans up messes caused by rich jerks and corporate a***s.. as Michael Clayton discovers a huge coverup he is forced to fight back or die the ending made even the slow parts worth the time spent..everyone is this great flick did their part and did it perfectly..from the good guys right down to the bad guys..which is which is the real question and Michael better find out who's who and quick! A fun edge of your seat thriller you're sure to love!! 5 out of 5 bars!!

  • Time we'll spent

    Can't stand this Clooney but he delivers in his portrayal of Clayton. It's a good story and worth the viewers time.

  • very stylish and well thought out

    Shame it's simply boring. Clooney runs around with the usual look of 'Who me?' in his eyes. I suppose he's laughing all the way to the bank and couldn't care less. This film has been given such a good rap by professional reviewers that I felt compelled to see it. Now I wonder how so much synchronized drug taking could exist amongst the reviewers because you'd have to be on magic mushrooms to enjoy this piece of nonsense.... I think I'll punish myself further and see a Nicole Kidman film next ...
