"Antitrust"

This is a film that was made, advertised and the pulled from its release schedule. When it finally came out it opened and went away very quickly, which in my opinion will make it a great rental.

Ryan Phillippe stars as an up and coming computer software designer who is whisked away and bought and paid for by Tim Robbins, who plays a Bill Gates type software company owner. One thing leads to another and Phillippe finds out that things are not as they seem. He does some investigating and low and behold he is now in some real trouble. If this story sounds familiar then you have probably seen "The Firm" or "The Devil's Advocate". Both very good movies that kept the thrills coming all through the movies.

"Antitrust" does the same thing, but the freshness of it is the young cast which also includes Claire Forlani of "Meet Joe Black" and Rachel Leigh Cook of "She's All That" and "Get Carter", Phillippe delivers a believable performance as the smart kid, who happens to be too smart. There are plenty of twists and turns in the whole who can you trust world of big company politics. Robbins plays his role much like that of his character in the brilliant film "Arlington Road" and pulls it off once again. He is becoming the new villain who you can like.

"Antitrust" delivers a good time and stays away from dumbing itself down and becoming just another teen thriller. Rent this movie and you should not be disappointed.
