Aaron Eckhart's long string of terrible lead roles can start and end with Thank You for Smoking, the snarky "satire" that points its finger at the tobacco industry and everything surrounding it. Thank You For Smoking is rarely funny and even less poignant as it roles to an inevitable conclusion that just screams trite. Chalk up another failure in Jason Reitman's awful catalog.

A movie that will have you cheering for the bad guys!

It's a great movie with some nice moments of reflections. The acting of Eckhart is excellent.

Excellent screenplay, good performances. Probably the best libertarian movie ever made.

#00s(m)#, reviews, casting.

When I was in high school I went to seminary before school (a Mormon thing) and we were watching a church made teach-a-lesson feel-goodery and Aaron Eckhart was in it. Needless to say it was very distracting and the lesson was immediately derailed. Turns out Eckhart used to be Mormon. He probably would have made a better Mormon candidate than Romney.

I don't get the "satire", sorry. Another movie with a thoroughly unlikable main character, like The Weather Man and Lord of War.

Smart, edgy, funny, and topical. A very well rounded movie about the tobacco industry.
