Steven Soderbergh has made a fascinating character study of a compulsive liar. Based on a true story, this film shows how someone’s motivations for “doing the right thing” might not always be based on solely catching the bad guys.

Mark Whitacre (Matt Damon, THE GOOD SHEPHERD) was the youngest vice president at ADM, where he was in charge of producing Lysine from corn. He tells his boss Mick Andreas (Tom Papa, BEE MOVIE) that the reason there is a destructive bug in the Lysine processing plant is because the Japanese have a mole in the company and are demanding millions to stop sabotaging the production. The company calls in the FBI, which gets Mark very agitated.

Adapted by directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller, this 3D concoction is pure comfort food. If RATATOUILLE is lobster, this animated entrée is like a good ole plate of spaghetti and meatballs. I mean it says so in the title.
