VERY disappointing

I had bought the hype: smart, funny, in touch with the times, and I was disappointed on all counts. This is a dull movie, that Clooney sleepwalks through. His voice is low and mumbly and he projects a very low energy level. The countless shots of people reacting to getting fired never seem very real. The movie feels very fabricated. It attempts to portray a journey of a man from self-absorbed isolationist to someone who values family and human contact; but this is portrayed very unconvincingly--Clooney's family in Northern Wisconsin are wooden and two-dimensional. One gets the feeling critics were paid off to rave about this dud.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
