    Thank You For Smoking

    I walked out of the theater, and took up smoking. It was that good, and the message was that convincing.

    Aaron Eckhart did a great job. And Rob Lowe's character is hilarious. Highly recommended.

    Laughed my ass of reading the book, can't wait to see if the movie does it justice. Merchants of Death!

    Every time I hear the name Eckhart I think of the fat crooked cop that gets killed by Jack Nicholson right before he fall into the vat of acid in Tim Burton's Batman.

    I saw the movie last Sunday, and thought it was great, best of the year so far. I thought it did the book justice

    That was a truly entertaining movie. The assistant at Global whatever was piss-my-pants funny.

    Saw it last weekend.... didn't think it was that funny.... more of a rental. The best was Rob Lowe and his assistant.

    Just watched this movie over the weekend. I watch movies to be entertained and this movie was entertaining. I liked how they used some creative editing and cinematography here and there; whenever they did it was surprising and made an impact.

    Great line (which I'm paraphrasing)
