Hi, everyone.

I love Middle Men movie, and I am a big fan of Luke Wilson's acting talent.

I could not have chosen a better actor for the role of protagonist in this movie, I really would not.

I also would not have chosen better secondary actors for this movie as well, as Giovanni Ribisi and Gabriel Macht are really very talented, especially in this one, as they have impersonated very well their purposes, I mean, they are perfect together, a real natural play from them in this movie.

Obviously, this is not a classic, nor a espetacular movie, nor a big budget movie, but the estimated $22 millions should have been converted in a good sum in my opinion.

I remember when this movie got out on the internet, straight to DVD, so I gave it a shot because of Luke Wilson's participation as protagonist, because I had just seen very recently his Vancancy movie with the beauty Kate Beckinsale.

I really hate when very good movies, creative ones, do not get the deserved success. Don't you?

I agree. I also gave it a chance due to the cast and that it was based on the true story of an internet pioneer (who also happens to be the "creator" of the film). This surpasses many movies I have seen that are at a much higher level of recognition and publicity for some reason. It isn't a masterpiece but could have been much more successful.

Hi,

Thanks for joining in. I love this movie, and it has some great scenes. No, it is not a masterpiece, but it is a great movie, with a great story, and the characters are no newbies in acting, precisely the opposite, specially Luke.

The movie does not bores you in any way, not in any second, and the voice sound throughout the movie from Luke is a good idea, like telling a story while showing it in a movie, that's very clever. One TV series that does this great idea is Dexter, and another one that I do not remember the name, about a burned out secret agent or whatever.

I love the first scene with Luke, very inspiring to see the whole movie.

Don't be influenced by my own opinion, tastes differentiate... always!
