The Good German

Soderbergh's noble failure is unfortunate because it gets so much right. A stunning homage to films of the 30's and 40's, specially CASABLANCA using archive footage. It looks more authentic than any of the films of that era that blends seamlessly with a great cast including Cate Blanchett, George Clooney and Tobey McGuire. The script is the weakest link here and it could have been great. Soderbergh's audacity and risk tasking is refreshing and welcome. Too bad the audience respond more to his mediocre OCEAN's films than this kind of films. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
