PETER TRAVERS "ALL THE ACTORS DESERVE HIGH PRAISE.
Hoffman and Giamatti remind you of just how good they are, digging into the script's choicest dialogue. Marisa Tomei excels as a New York Times reporter… Clooney knows how to ignite sparks and build momentum. And he hands the terrifi c Gosling an all-stops-out role that challenges him on every level – his ravaged face traces the line from compromise to corruption. Clooney's exceptional performance is a mesmerizing study in treachery, sweetly done."
