The Good German (2006)

This is clearly a tribute to noir movies of the 40s. It beautifully captures the feel and look of the movies of the time. George Clooney and Cate Blanchett are both good in their noirish roles. However, I'm not sure the movie had anything to offer *other* than being noir in 2006. It doesn't really standout as a movie in and of itself. Nice-looking, nice for fans of the genre... but nothing spectacular. 3 stars.
