Thank You for Smoking : Thank you for making ;)


There was a time of crisis in my life, when there was literally no movie left in my hard disk to watch. I was searching each and every folder in my drive to watch any unseen movie, as there was 3 hrs of Sunday afternoon waiting to get utilized. As I was loosing my battle, this movie came into my attention as a life saver. I decided to watch it.
I have heard way too much about this movie from my friends. Having faith in them, I traded my sunday afternoon for this movie. I have to admit, I had a great time watching this movie. A very good movie and a very challenging characterization.
'Thank you for Smoking' is a satirical comedy which revolves around the life of Nick Naylor (Aaron Eckhart), tobacco industry spokesman. He is a part of self appointed M.O.D squad (Merchants of Death), whose main job is to talk. His job is to spin, confuse and trap the opponents and charm their audience. He goes on a television show, verbally battles US Senator, deems the Cancer research Foundation - all the while trying to set an example for his 10 year old son. No work is easy and everything has a price.
To find it, I'd suggest you to get hold of this movie. I have purposefully missed mentioning about other characters of the film, which are unique and very well crafted. I must appreciate the director, Jason Reitman for making this movie.
If you are bored of watching movies with same old genre, then no harm in tryin this movie. Kindly watch this movie and if you like it, then jus a little clap with a smile and a small comment is enough to encourage good cinema. Thank you!
