First up:
Michael Douglas works for a computer hardware firm thats about to merge with another firm. At one point he gets caught up in a sexual harassment suit brought on by the headhunter (Demi Moore)hired by the company. The lawsuit fails and Douglas is exonerated. THEN he's set up to look incompetent at a board meeting by the same woman and again he beats her. All the while he and few others are being considered for a promotion and theres some men vs. women back and forth while people are being considered. In the end a woman gets the promotion, Douglas keeps his job and all's well that ends well.
SO WHY THE FUCK WERE THEY TRYING TO GET RID OF MICHAEL DOUGLAS TO BEGIN WITH?? It was never established (at least not in a way that I could pick up) what firing him would have achieved. And they went thru ridiculously complicated (tho the sex scene was hot) ways to do it.
Anyone pick up on WHY they were trying to get rid of him in the first place?
Okay so Sam Jackson is a special forces DI who gets killed. John Travolta plays a CID cop asked to investigate. They go thru the typical Roshamon story retold thru several POVs ploy and come up with like a BAZILLION suspects since jackson is the typical hardass DI everyone would want to kill. Thru out the movie it becomes clear that everyone is lying and even the flashbacks aren't true and in the final scene we find out that not only is Sam Jackson not dead but he works on the same team as John Travolta as well as Taye Diggs (the guy he hazed the hardest) and pretty much all the people we see in the movie.
So the wrap up by Travolta was that Jackson and his team were infiltrating some drug crew in the military and they were close to exposing Jackson so his death was faked in an effort to extract him or something i dunno I lost interest when I found out that absolutely nothing was true in the flick.
So WHY did they go thru all that?
