A Good Reminder for all Corporates/ Professionals

Rating: 7/10 (18 November 2012)

Many touches of real life in today's world are arranged very well in this film. Moreover, they are very relevant -- you could be like Clooney, locked in his way of solitary life and withholding his twisted philosophy about work versus life, both engineered by the treads of corporate responsibilities and traveling; or you could be like Vera's, a female version of Clooney (I can imagine a powerful female CEO) with a twisted, sly way of fulfilling her needs of escape; or Anna's, a naive young smart employee who finds herself, after stepping into the world of career focus and all, eventually confused with the real world versus her ideals; or simply any one of those employees where the possibility of getting let go is uncertain. It is one of those films that serves as a reminder or where you will feel a whole lot wiser after watching it. The only few flaws are i.e. Vera's willingness to be his date for the wedding (which may place her reputation in grave danger), crash parties? (the orgy boat scene is over the top, i mean they are in the middle of work not holidaying), Anna's acceptance into a company (which she herself rejected earlier) just by a recommendation letter?? that is total bullshit that does not work anymore in a world of fierce competition, strict bureaucracies, over-qualifications and vast unemployment.
