"Thank-You for Smoking" - Review

This will be a pretty quick review, but I did want to get it out there as this movie is wonderful. Maybe I'll update it a bit in the future, but for now this is it.



First of all Thank-you for Smoking is a smart comedy. It's not slapstick, it's not frat house humor, it's smart comedy. If you pay attention to the subtleties you won't be disappointed.

Also this movie classifies as the Number 2 sales training movie of all time. (Tommy Boy still holds a special place in my heart.)



Some of the stuff that the main character says may upset some, but if you honestly stop and think about them they make sense in a weird sort of way. Plus they are really funny, so it's worth it.

So give it a watch and just enjoy the great performances by William H Macy, Robert Duval, and others. The M.O.D. (Ministry of Death) is just great!! Enjoy and do remember that smoking IS bad for you!!
