1.0 out of 5 stars Deceptive - NOT A COMEDY!, March 26, 2010
This review is from: The Informant! (Video On Demand)
Contrary to the sneak peeks of this movie; it is absolutely NOT a comedy.

It is not a bad movie, as I would probably give it 2 stars if it weren't so deceptive in classifying itself. The biggest letdown is that they advertise it to be a hilarious comedy, when it is just a story about a guy that has mental problems.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very entertaining but probably won't watch it again., March 20, 2010
By That Was Cool. "TDurden1937" (Phoenix, Arizona, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Informant! (Video On Demand)
Matt Damon does his usual good acting job in this story of a sociopathic biochemist/businessman.

The film style is rather quirky with an incongruous soundtrack and stylistic settings in the Midwestern United States. I was kept interested throughout the film by new revelations regarding Whitaker's embezzlements.

The story progresses from Whitaker seeming to be a blameless whistle-blower to being the creative force in his own little 10 million dollar embezzlement scheme, while the company he worked for ripped consumers off for hundreds of millions in price fixing.

If you are a matt Damon fan I think you will enjoy this film.

2.0 out of 5 stars Just WAY too confusing, July 24, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Informant! (Video On Demand)
This is not the movie that I thought I was going to see.

It's one of those confused, vague wastes of time
