THANK YOU FOR SMOKING
Thank You for Smoking is a sly adaptation of Christopher Buckley's novel about the rise of spin culture. Aaron Eckhart is perfectly cast as smug slug Nick Naylor who lobbies for people's right to give themselves cancer, and who encourages kids to decide for themselves whether cigarettes are really as bad as mum and dad say. In his lunch breaks Nick trades body counts with his «Merchants of Death» cohorts in the booze and firearms business, beautifully sketched by the boisterous David Koechner and the magnificently mercurial Maria Bello. Nick's newest mission is to seal a deal putting cigs back into cinema, and so only a senator, a tumour-ridden cowboy and a death threat stand between Naylor and his mortgage payments.(Mark Kermode)
