Critical MeMe

Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

The Deal (2008)

Poor Meg Ryan. She's really quite lovable and has a really good sense of comic timing. I mean, if it hadn't been for that Crowe affair and the stupid lips, she might still be going strong.

This "let's see how much we can get away with" insider Hollywood fluff is throwaway fun. Meg's quite good here and William H. Macy is fantastic. Lots of little giggles in a movie that doesn't quite seem "finished."
