60 of 238 · most liked firstRob Reiner directed some of the most beloved movies of all time, including Stand By Me, This is Spinal Tap, and The Princess Bride. His production company also made movies like The Shawshank Redemption, Before Sunrise and Michael Clayton. The film industry has lost one of its titans.
neutral · AI labelView post →Youtube movie clips used to be titled "The Meeting - Michael Clayton (2007) (3/10)" and now they're all like "George Clooney Shocked When He Learns The Truth"
neutral · AI labelView post →If you enjoyed ANDOR and still haven’t seen MICHAEL CLAYTON, do yourself a favor. Different genre but same writer-director, the brilliant Tony Gilroy. It’s so great.
positive · AI labelView post →a quick note and an apology: in this episode I let my co-host slip in a comment disparaging Michael Clayton (2007). As someone who represents the straight boy community on this show, I should have stood up for the film. I will be better and I will do better.
positive · AI labelView post →I know this isn’t a musical but we should put Michael Clayton back in theaters and all go dressed as the characters and say our favorite lines in unison with the film
neutral · AI labelView post →“I’m not the enemy.” MICHAEL CLAYTON (2007) This terrific Movie opened 19yrs ago today. #TomWilkinson #GeorgeClooney
neutral · AI labelView post →Michael Clayton one of the great "tired guy" movies. It's a movie I think a lot of as someone who is tired and rundown all of the time now
positive · AI labelView post →haven't seen Andor yet but I absolutely co-sign on this Michael Clayton rec. perfect movie
positive · AI labelView post →Michael Clayton would be a perfect film if they had more clearly tied it into the rest of the MCU
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm Michael Clayton pilled now. I need a second movie like Michael Clayton. Tell me another movie like Michael Clayton.
positive · AI labelView post →Tom Wilkinson, a versatile actor who won Oscar nominations and plaudits for his performances in movies like “Michael Clayton” and “The Full Monty,” died on Saturday at 75.
neutral · AI labelView post →This movie rocks it's like if Michael Clayton fucked
positive · AI labelView post →watched the 2007 legal thriller Michael Clayton for the first time last night and aside from everything else it's neat to see a movie where no one, not one single character, summarizes the plot and/or stakes for the audience
positive · AI labelView post →the kids were upset when they overheard our plan to watch a movie tonight. the 8-year-old was like "without US? how DARE you!" and i was like "it is a GROWN UP movie about LAWYERS" but now i wish I'd responded by making them sit and watch Michael Clayton with us. smoke the whole pack kinda thing
positive · AI labelView post →Finally sat down and watched Michael Clayton, and now I need to know why I waited 18 years to see it because this movie fucking rules.
positive · AI labelView post →Watched Michael Clayton last night for the first time in forever and it reaffirmed for me that, *when it’s done well*, the superior movie genre is one where the ENTIRE film is just burnt out adults having tense, wordy conversations.
positive · AI labelView post →movies i have used paramount+ to watch: - The Godfather parts I and II - Star Trek: The Motion Picture and Wrath of Khan - The Big Short - Michael Clayton movies paramount+ thinks i want to watch: - Paw Patrol: The Movie - Paw Patrol: The Mighty Movie - six more Paw Patrol tv specials
neutral · AI labelView post →Michael Clayton is a Christmas movie if you watch it on Christmas, as I intend to
neutral · AI labelView post →COWBOY: This here fella says he ain’t never seen the 2007 Tony Gilroy movie Michael Clayton! OTHER COWBOYS [SIMULTANEOUSLY]: Michael Clayton!???
neutral · AI labelView post →I watched Michael Clayton over the weekend, and not only was it a great movie, a whole panoply of Internet references has now been opened to me, like how I imagine it goes for people that watch Marge vs The Monorail for the first time
positive · AI labelView post →Just while we're all MICHAEL CLAYTON-posting one thing I really like about the movie that I never hear anyone talk about is how hyper-specifically it's set in the contemporary late 00s, a surprising rarity in an era where period pieces were seemingly over-represented.
positive · AI labelView post →MICHAEL CLAYTON is a tremendous corporate thriller, but on a rewatch it's really striking how from a craft-construction perspective, people turn to the camera approximately every 15 minutes and ask "Who is Michael Clayton?" which is good actually! it's the question that drives the movie!
positive · AI labelView post →Michael Clayton is the movie you cannot describe and you cannot sell. But it is the movie that changes everything about how you see and how you tell.
positive · AI labelView post →FPOTUS has now attacked George Clooney for never making any good movies. For my money (as a New York lawyer who spent most of my career in AmLaw100 firms dealing with criminal and civil litigation), Michael Clayton is an ALL-TIME great movie and a GREAT performance. No political takes, please.
positive · AI labelView post →Been trying to figure out who Trey Yesavage reminds me of. Finally got it! He looks like a young version of my friend Sean Cullen, veteran actor who played George Clooney’s brother in MICHAEL CLAYTON.
neutral · AI labelView post →Also Michael Clayton, dad movie through and through
positive · AI labelView post →Was saving for Friday, but we need some levity. 2000s (00-09) movie draft. You get one in each category, my picks included. Drama: Michael Clayton Action/adventure: Bourne Identity Horror: Exorcism of Emily Rose Comedy: Mean Girls Romance: Amelie Oscar Winner: No Country for Old Men
neutral · AI labelView post →That movie becomes a lot more fun if you imagine hearing a constant stream of consciousness from Michael Clayton but he’s comically dumb and going “oh brother!” to everything that happens
neutral · AI labelView post →Once again, I rewatched Michael Clayton. As a former prosecutor who knocked around for decades at AmLaw100 firms without making equity partner, it remains my favorite movie. I’m really happy to have directed my career in a new direction. Sydney Pollack was perfect.
positive · AI labelView post →I know Michael Clayton is a bit of a meme at this point for movies that people over 30 love but he was so fucking good in Michael Clayton. It’s a role that could have good sideways from being over the top or strange but he just fucking nailed it www.bbc.com/news/enterta...
positive · AI labelView post →Me after TNF: “Wanna watch a Christmas movie?” My fiancé: “I kind of want to watch Michael Clayton.” Me: “oh?” Fiancé: “It’s about corporate espionage.” Me: “Oh… OH”
neutral · AI labelView post →Do I get paid more if I watch the Tony Gilmore-directed film Michael Clayton, starring George Clooney as Michael Clayton? No, and I don't know why you'd say that. Seems like something Michael Clayton would do.
neutral · AI labelView post →Just rewatched “Michael Clayton” (2007) in honor of Tom Wilkinson. Good lord, that’s a great movie.
positive · AI labelView post →It feels like a Roger Rabbit follow up in the sense that there is dark cynicism underlying the cartoony mayhem. Except instead of parodying film noir, this is basically Michael Clayton or Erin Brockovich. It's so weird to make a legal thriller with Looney Tunes characters but somehow it works 🤔
neutral · AI labelView post →BREAKING: Michael Clayton is still a perfect movie.
positive · AI labelView post →This trailer of the blockbuster Hollywood legal film Michael Clayton with George Clooney and Tilda Swinton, has all the legal environmental and societal ingredients for a 2025 legal thriller - but it’s set in 2007!
neutral · AI labelView post →Tom Wilkinson's performance in Michael Clayton is among my favorite acting jobs by anyone in anything, and I'm so glad we have this blog about it defector.com/tom-wilkinso...
positive · AI labelView post →This was kind of like Michael Clayton if Michael Clayton stayed a shithead the whole movie
neutral · AI labelView post →Michael Clayton is such an underrated movie and I wish people would talk about it more in the specific context of "if you just watched Andor and want more of that" sense too
positive · AI labelView post →Douthat had the superficial observation that Michael Clayton is a “left wing film” because the bad guys were in corporate and Gilroy was like “what’s left or right about being against pesticide poisoning”
neutral · AI labelView post →btw I only put together in my head recently that Tony Gilroy of Andor was Tony Gilroy of Michael Clayton anyway Michael Clayton is a good movie&ALSO I kind of think Gilroy may have a bit of a "I hate girlbosses" thing going on but that's also my way of saying "the villain of MC is basically Dedra"
positive · AI labelView post →I’ve decided today is “Michael Clayton” Day, the day I will watch the movie “Michael Clayton” for the first time.
neutral · AI labelView post →Tom Wilkinson's 15 baguettes from the film 'Michael Clayton' will return in AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY
neutral · AI labelView post →an exceptional night of LA repertory film, flawless 35mm print of Michael Clayton at @vidiots.bsky.social with writer/director and Rogue One/Andor mastermind Tony Gilroy Q&A - his first time watching the movie in 18 years (and my first time)
positive · AI labelView post →RIP Tom Wilkinson. My favorite movie of his is Michael Clayton, but what are some less well known and / or underrated ones?
neutral · AI labelView post →I still say "John Carter" might've succeeded if the title had any indication of what the movie was about. My ex-wife kept confusing it with "Michael Clayton."
neutral · AI labelView post →The last 4 movies I watched... Mary Poppins The Nice Guys Michael Clayton The Silence of the Lambs #lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday #letterboxd #filmsky #moviesky boxd.it/Iqj
neutral · AI labelView post →The Michael Clayton school of film making tells you one thing: a good movie kills the man you're rooting for despite all odds, a great movie gives him a big bag of baguettes first.
neutral · AI labelView post →Thinking about Richard Kind in the place of Tom Wilkinson (who is very, very good) in Michael Clayton and how much better that movie that would have been. Just think about it
negative · AI labelView post →A friend on here recommended yesterday I watch the excellent film MICHAEL CLAYTON, which is about an attorney trying to help another attorney who’s going through a psychotic break but also has stumbled on to a real conspiracy (cont’d)
positive · AI labelView post →Loved COYOTE VS. ACME, a movie about life lived according to one's principles. Reminded me a lot of MICHAEL CLAYTON so good. #CoyoteVsAcme
neutral · AI labelView post →Michael Clayton is not underrated. People either know it's the best movie of the aughts or they don't know enough about movies to rate them in the first place.
positive · AI labelView post →The credits mean the movie is over! One more exception: when the last scene of the movie plays over the start of the end credits (MICHAEL CLAYTON, CACHE, LA CEREMONIE), I like this when it happens
neutral · AI labelView post →Well we could just watch Michael Clayton over and over and over and over again. It's a perfect movie - like Jaws. I mean come on....
positive · AI labelView post →In further "guess I know why I'm like this" my mom seems to have agreed that to celebrate finishing radiation treatment tomorrow we should watch the movie Michael Clayton
neutral · AI labelView post →Michael Clayton heads when they’re convinced by a child that Realm and Conquest is the key to the whole friggin movie
neutral · AI labelView post →We finally saw the 2007 film "Michael Clayton" with George Clooney and Tilda Swinton on Netflix and loved it. Clooney plays a "fixer" tasked with a corporate law firm's dirtiest work, in a stylish film noir for the post-Monsanto age. Brilliantly acted and written.
positive · AI labelView post →I know all the film geeks love Michael Clayton but this is actually George Clooney’s best serious movie performance (I might be on an island w/this take but I’m ok w/that)
positive · AI labelView post →My wife has never seen Michael Clayton. So that’s what we are doing tonight. Man I love this movie.
positive · AI labelView post →Today's first movie is Michael Clayton (2007) 🍿
