Thank You for This Movie

Thank you for Smoking was a surprise gem that has a unique approach to combining humor and real world issues at the expense of the "good guys." Aaron Eckhart brought life to the argument with his well versed dialogue and a persuasiveness that made me understand why Big Tobacco is so successful. A must see.

Some fathers are Firemen, some fathers are Policemen, a few fathers are Spin-Doctors. This movie is the tale of one spin-doctor, Nick Naylor, spokesperson for the Academy of Tobacco Studies. As many in the PR/advertising industry have found, the harder the challenge the move ingenious and talented the players become. Nick is at the top of his game, but has to tackle changing public opinion, cancer... read more

I didn't think much of the adverts for this film when it came on to Sky Movies but the boredom of being unemployed was enough for me to give it a try.

I was thoroughly impressed though. It was nothing like I imagined it and every point made was worthy of recognition. As stated already, Naylor is definitely a hero in noctine armour.

Aaron Eckhart's performance was fant... read more

Description: Tobacco industry lobbyist Nick Naylor has a seemingly impossible task: promoting cigarette smoking in a time when the health hazards of the activity have become too plain to ignore. Nick, however, revels in his job, using argument and twisted logic to place, as often as not, his clients in the positions of either altruistic do-gooders ... (more)

"06.03.2014 "That's the beauty of argument, if you argue correctly, you're never wrong." This is still my favorite Jason Reitman movie, and i don't even smoke. This is also my favorite Aaron Eckhart performance. I just love him in this film. He's such a sleazy asshole, yet he always manages to get you on his side. He really deserved more recognition for his performance here. The rest of the cast are also all great. Except for Katie Holmes. She is just awful and that really makes her scenes just"
