Whatever, a stinker

Warning: Spoilers
I was looking forward to The Informant I sometimes like Soderbergh movies. Even when they are off-beat there's usually something that appeals about them, but not here. Left a lot to be desired in terms of logic and keeping the viewer's interest. You get bored waiting for the whole plot to unfold, which is not good. Matt Damon isn't that bad in the main role but the movie just is going in circles. It's not funny when it tries to be. It's not tense when it tries to be. The corn starch thing gets old real fast. It was mildly entertaining for about five minutes, then it's a bore. The best part of it was the titles. They used some light music over seventies looking credits. All in all, I felt like it was trying to imitate the Coen brothers but with no success. So sorry to inform that it was no fun.
