Entertaining and Honest..., 13 September 2005

Just saw this as it premiered in Toronto - awesome cast, very funny
dialog, and more than skin deep. First time director does a nice job -
and the opening credits are noteworthy. RECOMMENDED. Pokes fun at the
smoking industry (and lobbyists), but at others as well, and its hard
to disagree with the sharp satire. Rob Lowe's small role is priceless,
the casting was perfect across the board. Nick Naylor's (Eckart)
relationship with his son is center and keeps some genuine qualities
through all the laughs. My friend and I both rated this near the top or
at the top of the 7 films we saw in Toronto last weekend. Not sure what
its distribution / release schedule is yet, as there was still some
debate over who had actually purchased the rights to it. Eckart in
person came across as very genuine and is also in another great
upcoming movie - Neverwas.
