Swimming with Sharks plot
"In Hollywood his dreams could come true. But first he has to make coffee."
Guy wants to make it as a movie producer in Hollywood and there's one way that can go really fast and that's if you become a producer's assistant. He becomes Buddy Ackerman's assistant. It soon becomes apparent that Buddy likes to make Guy's life very difficult, he does this by giving him all kinds of nonsense assignments and berating him completely when he feels like it. But Guy won't let this just pass him by.

A rather brilliant film with a strong cast, an interesting premise, and a remarkable and delightfully dark ending. Highly recommended!
4*.

There's no doubt that for the most part, Kevin Spacey makes this film work, but at the same time, Frank Whaley isn't a bad co-star.
Kevin Spacey manages to give his character more depth while remaining believable, something many other actors can't do without years of training and experience.
And yet I also thought Michelle Forbes was well cast in her role, she doesn't have a super big role but she is important to the plot.
This movie most likely isn't for everyone and the ending is even a little strange,but it seems to work for this movie.
3.5 stars are definitely deserved

A decent film about a young man who works as an assistant for a tough film producer. The first half is certainly good, but the second half sometimes gets repetitive, making it a bit monotonous. Both Kevin Spacey and Frank Whaley are excellently cast, but it's the former who steals the scenes. Just shy of 3.5 stars.
