The Method (2005)
8/10
Absolutely great

This is a smart movie, filled with interesting and often hilarious dialogue. Every piece of the movie comes together in a very intelligent way. The "obvious" social commentaries are very subtle, and not "in your face," as other ambitious but disastrous films focused on the corporate world can often be. Noriega's my favorite Spanish actor, and he consistently lives up to my expectations.

The movie is set in corporate conference room for a group job interview. The hilarity begins right away with Natalia Verbeke's irresistible charisma. The focus of the movie centers around the one personality that is required to succeed in the corporate realm. It's interesting to analyze each personality of the candidates, and understand why others were eliminated, while only one was selected.

Sounds like a tedious case study, but the director's style and the cast's brilliance is what makes this film unique and enjoyable.
