An enjoyable movie with a surprise ending which I shall not tell you because you should see the movie. The character portrayal by Keaton of a high pressure salesman and his higher pressure company, and the competition in the trenches between rival companies is worth the watch even if the movie had no plot (which it does). We are all selling something and in this movie, his relationship with new salesman, Brendan Fraser, and the older guys on the sales force, one of who is "Dave the killer" from Desperate Housewives is almost Shakespearean. Amber Valletta glues everything together nicely. It is, in the end, a redemption story. The dog-eat-dog world of the Willy Lohmans of the world is epic.
