2. Summary

   Good 3.0

   Kevin Spacey shows early prowess by elevating the definition of an a**hole to new heights. The corporate version of a drill sergeant whose sole aim is to demean and pull apart the plebe. I’m betting that Kevin really enjoyed this role. The comedy is quite subtle and buried in Spacey’s antics. If you pay attention, you’ll notice an almost Steve Martin like craziness to his mean. In fact, when he gets in the zone, you almost notice him let up a little – the only flaw in the character. If you can bear through some overly-dramatic parts at the end, you’ll be rewarded with a great ending and an overall crowd pleaser.
