The title tells it all. Thank You For Smoking! The story follows Nick, the most famous cigarette salesman in the business. As he says, he gets "paid to talk." Talk he does, putting his own spin on everything that threatens him or his company in the slightest. He even turns a child with lung cancer on a talk show against the very people who brought him there to speak against cigarettes. But, Nick soon begins to question himself as things begin to pile up.
Direction was very good and stylish. It wasn't stand up and clap funny, nor was it laugh out loud hilarious. It was a movie that basically wowed you with it's script and portrayal of media, companies and people themselves. The movie made me wish I could spin lies just as good as Mr.Nailer can.
A pretty funny, clever movie.

Overhyped
