Confessions of a Dangerous Mind

Very cool stylized dark comedy.  This is directed by George Clooney (his directorial debut).  I'm a fan of Sam Rockwell and he does awesome here as the main character.  He plays Chuck Barris and it is based on a book written by the real Chuck Barris.  Chuck is a TV show creator who tries to make a successful show mostly about dating.  On the side, he does contract killings for the CIA.  There, movie is sold to me.  Must be a tough job and life juggling between TV and hitman duties not to mention having two women in his life.  Drew Barrymore plays his main love interest.  Julia Roberts plays the mysterious lady connected to the CIA.  I had a great time watching this flick.  Didn't know what to expect.  This had an awesome soundtrack as well.  Got to have to have all them songs in my music collection.
Highly recommend this movie. Worth buying as well.
