As fierce as it is funny. Rarely does does a film sustain such a fever pitch of dramatic intensity. One of the very best of 1992.

Pacino, Lemmon, Harris, and Baldwin are masters of their craft, and Mamet's dynamite play rewards them accordingly.

Mamet has a special gift for drawing realistic portriats of lowlifers who are harsh but also funny, not to speak of his unique skill at contsructing tension-ridden situations; his salesmen are a far cry from Arthur Miller's Loman in Death of a Salesman.

David Mamet's prophetic and soulful drama about how the human spirit is violated in the work arena.
