This is really one of those movies that makes you go "What? What's all the fuss about?" It really is "just another lawyer movie" with a "go green!" conscience.
It might have a far more entertaining movie if it hadn't been for the execution. It's almost as if someone took the plot, chopped it up into tiny pieces and threw them up into the air. Wherever the scenes landed, that's the order they were sequenced. I don't mind a plot being revealed in layers but for the majority of this movie you spend your time wondering who the hell everyone is, what's their relation, and why the hell is this long and useless scene important? (Seriously? Clooney in an elevator for two minutes?)
The ending definitely brings it all together... but for the first two hours you're so confused that it's just irritating. That isn't entertainment, regardless of whatever message the movie is trying to put across.
