In Good Company

Check out this charming comedy from director Paul Weitz (About a Boy, American Pie), featuring a stellar cast in a gentle satire about ageism and megacorporations. Topher Grace is sensational (as he was in a lesser movie, Win a Date with Tad Hamilton!. If there is any justice, he's going to be a major movie star, the logical heir to the kind of young romantic lead roles that Tom Hanks and Hugh Grant would have been right for two decades ago. Dennis Quaid is also immensely likable in a role that could have been treacly, and Scarlet Johansson has never been more charming or lovely on screen.
