Shelley Levene (Jack Lemmon) is a desperate salesman with a daughter in the hospital. Blake (Alec Baldwin) is brought in by Mitch and Murray to push the sales force. The highest sales number gets a Cadillac. The last one gets fired. Dave Moss (Ed Harris) is incensed and pushes George Aaronow (Alan Arkin). Manager John Williamson (Kevin Spacey) is given Glengarry leads to hold. Ricky Roma (Al Pacino) is the best closer in the office and selling James Lingk (Jonathan Pryce) in a bar.The Mamet script sings. This is like music. If it's written poorly, Baldwin's pitch would sound campy. The fact that it's so compelling proves that it is brilliant. As for the actors, one can almost smell the stink of Lemmon's desperation. Ed Harris is terrific in his bravado but also his cowering to Blake. The acting power is beyond questioning.

A movie that seems to get better with each viewing, It's indeed the most complex and brilliant of films (originally from a stage play by David Mamet) and directed by James Foley. With the greatest cast of actors ever assembled, Including Al Pacino, Jack Lemmon, Alec Baldwin (delivering the hardest talk), the haunted Alan Arkin and the manic Ed Harris. Mostly the action takes place in a single office but the script, acting, story (and every aspect of this incredible picture) is just 'through the roof!' A cinematic masterpiece of spitefully immense proportions.

A fantastic movie with realistic, extremely fun and profanity filled script that never seems dull and always demands your attention. Combine that with an ensemble cast of acting royalty portraying memorable characters and you got yourself a truly memorable cinematic experience that is surely to leave a lasting impression.
