Feel-good movie of the year

Rating: 8/10 (25 December 2001)

I really enjoyed this movie. Julia Roberts plays Erin Brockovich, a single mom with three kids who becomes a lawyer's assistant, and brings down a huge company almost on her own. The fact that someone without a degree or higher education can pull off a stunt like this, only looks a little incredible, but aren't many films like that?
Steven Soderbergh (King of the Hill,Traffic) did a fine job, Albert Finney (Miller's Crossing,Traffic) was excellent, and so was Julia Roberts. If you like this movie, you may also like The Truman Show! My rating: 8/10
