Thank You For Smoking



In this tar black satire from Jason Reitman, director of the upcoming Juno, we have a glimpse into the world of tobacco conglomerates.

This had a limited UK release last year, so stayed under the radar, but don't let that put you off. This is a seriously intelligent comedy that hits on many levels.

Presented from the warped perspective of those on the inside, it showcases a genuinely engaging performance from Aaron Eckhart. It's easy to see why Christopher Nolan cast him as Harvey Dent, in this summers The Dark Knight.
