Review
"Alda gives the film's strongest performance. Kinnear, often a player of light comedy, does a convincing job of making this quiet, resolute man into a giant slayer."--Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times"...It's exhilarating in an authentic, pathos-streaked way..."--Baltimore Sun"An uncompromising and ultimately chilling look at individual creativity trampled by corporate greed, and its timing could not be more appropriate."--Seattle Post-Intelligencer
