I like this guys! Does anyone know which role Schiff will play? Hopkins are credit as Alfred...sound like a guy that working at the factory
shareRichard Schiff is one of the few good thing in this movie and porbably the only character which is not played as a caricature. Shame there's just very little of him in the film.
Bob Hoskins is good with the very little material he's given, but he's been let down by a terrible script.
Are we really suppose to believe that that type of person can quote Carl Marx? Ridicolous.
Not a bad film, but such a great story deversed so much more!!
Here's my review

Moviegeek, it's hard to take you seriously with so many spelling mistakes. For one, it's Karl Marx, not Carl! And, yes, it's very easy to believe that "that type of person" – a union organizer, for god's sake – could quote KARL Marx!
Fair enough backofthevan, sorry about the spelling mistakes (writing on the iPhone is not the easiest thing, believe me). Having said that, I still believe the film is quite average, the acting a it hammy in places and the characters not as believeable as they should be.

Give the guy a break. It doesn't take a graduate degree from Stanford to write movie reviews.
shareI never give anyone a break who toots his own horn ( "read my review.") and can't get Bob Hoskins' name
right.
I'm with you Kartoff (only just seen the film) That people think working class people are ignorant is an awful insult. When they can't even spell Karl shows who the ignorant really are.
Btw I would never normally pull someone on spelling or grammar but in this context?
