4 stars (Very Good) Hollywood studio executive, Griffin, rejects a writer who begins to stalk him sending threatening postcards telling him his days are numbered. After confronting the suspected, ends up involved in murder. Great plot, with dozens of cameos. ~GenXGirl

4 stars (Very Good) Brilliant satire, right from the opening scene. A tour de force by director Robert Altman and a star studded cast. If you haven't seen this then what are you waiting for?. ~Anon
