The Informant (R,
Drama, Comedy) F
This film is loosely based on the true story of
Marc Whitacre, a major executive at ADM that became an informant for the
FBI. The matter being investigated by the FBI was incredibly dull even though
it was an important one. Matt Damon wasn’t at his best playing Witacre
in a comedic manner. To be fair he couldn’t do much with the poor
screenplay and bad humor. During the entire movie we hear Witacre come up
with random thought that don’t make sense and don’t seem like
something a smart executive would come up with. This film shows that not
every true story is worth putting on the big screen even if it has some
comedic spin to it.
