The Truth Can Be Adjusted.

...I saw last night that Mr. Roeper named this his number 1 of 2007...no way...My big man-crush George Clooney is spectacularly good, but the film itself is simply a legal procedural...it doesn't add up to much...Tilda Swinton is good as always, but her character isn't quite believable...the story about a large ADM-like food consortium is timely, but not exactly intriguing...
