The Informant!

About 95% hilarity and the other 5% is quality serious material about a very confused man; confused about what he wants, and very unsure about what he wants to do. Mark Whitacre goes to the FBI and all looks good as he's doing the right thing, but by the end of the movie one doesn't really have a clear picture of his motives.

A poster I saw for this movie sums it up very well, it just reads, "Unbelievalbe". That says a lot about Mark and thats part of what makes it so funny to watch. It's sort of the Micheal Scott, "Did he really just do/say that?" kind of thing, but the movie is written in a different way so it's definitely original humor and doesn't have quite the level of ackwardness The Office does.

I think the best part about this movie is that it even though it follows Matt Damon's character so closely, the audience is not all knowing and you find things out for the first time along with Joel McHale and Captain Archer.

Bonus points for the aforementioned "Captain Archer" and because I just read Damon put on thirty pounds for this role (nuts!)...

4.4/5
