Movie Reviews of Glengarry Glen Ross
Movie Review: "Put that coffee down! Coffee is for closers only."
Summary: 5 Stars
Guns. Explosions. Car chases. Sex. Damsels in distress. Child sidekicks. MTV-like madness. These are the things that Glengarry Glen Ross DOESN'T have. So what makes it so great? Because it's a character-driven story that relies strictly on dialogue and personalities. There is no need for gunfights and car chases; the characters and the dialogue in this movie are what makes it so captivating. These characters are raunchy and obscene; it's hard to either love them or despise them.
Based on the Tony Award-winning play by David Mamet, it is a story about desperation, distrust, greed, and real estate. There are six main characters, and they easily make the film for their hard-hitting attitudes. Pacino, Lemmon, Harris, Arkin, Spacey, and Baldwin . . . I don't know how to perfectly describe them. They are brilliant. The way they interact with each other, how they detest each other, how they trust and distrust each other; complexity lies in their chemistry. The plot may be simple, but it's the characters that makes Glengarry Glen Ross really special. It's a movie that must be remembered for every new generation.
Word of caution: if you can't stand heavy profanity, then you probably won't feel very comfortable while watching this. The F and S words are constantly used throughout, so you have been warned.
Summary of Glengarry Glen Ross
A group of sleazy real estate men face a high-pressure stress as they are put in danger of getting the ax by their hard-driving bosses.System Requirements:Starring: Al Pacino Alan Arkin Alec Baldwin Ed Harris Jack Lemmon and Kevin Spacey. Directed By: James Foley. Running Time: 100 Min. Color. This film is presented in both "Widescreen" and "Standard" formats. Copyright 2002 Artisan Entertainment.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?DRAMA Rating:?R UPC:?012236114505 Manufacturer No:?13286Like moths to a flame, great actors gravitate to the singular genius of playwright-screenwriter David Mamet, who updated his Pulitzer Prize-winning play for this all-star screen adaptation. The material is not inherently cinematic, so the movie's greatest asset is Mamet's peerless dialogue and the assembly of a once-in-a-lifetime cast led by Al Pacino, Jack Lemmon, and Alec Baldwin (the last in a role Mamet created especially for the film). Often regarded as a critique of the Reagan administration's impact on the American economy, the play and film focus on a competitive group of real estate salesmen who've gone from feast to famine in a market gone cold. When an executive "motivator" (Alec Baldwin) demands a sales contest among the agents in the cramped office, the stakes are critically high: any agent who fails to meet his quota of sales "leads" (i.e., potential buyers) will lose his job. This intense ultimatum is a boon for the office superstar (Pacino), but a once-successful salesman (Lemmon) now finds himself clinging nervously to faded glory. Political and personal rivalries erupt under pressure when the other agents (Alan Arkin, Ed Harris) suspect the office manager (Kevin Spacey) of foul play. This cauldron of anxiety, tension, and sheer desperation provides fertile soil for Mamet's scathingly rich dialogue, which is like rocket fuel for some of the greatest actors of our time. Pacino won an Oscar nomination for his volatile performance, but it's Lemmon who's the standout, doing some of the best work of his distinguished career. Director James Foley shapes Mamet's play into a stylish, intensely focused film that will stand for decades as a testament to its brilliant writer and cast. --Jeff Shannon
