Synopsis

Charming, fast talking Marty Kaan and his crack team of management consultants know how to play the corporate game better than anyone, by using every dirty trick in the book to woo powerful CEOs and close huge deals. In the board rooms, barrooms, and bedrooms of the power elite, corruption is business as usual and everyone's out for themselves first. Nothing is sacred in this scathing, irreverent satire of corporate America today.

Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.
Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
foghorn_clj This show had so much potential. With Don Cheadle and the always delightful Kristen Bell it should've been a slam dunk. But it's not. Here's why:1. The concept of "fixers" coming into a company and saving it using unscrupulous methods is not a new concept. The problem is other shows do it better.2. The series starts as out edgy and badass with all the corporate politics. But very quickly it turned into a horrible daytime drama.3. The "breaking the fifth wall" commentary by the main character was interesting at first but then he ran out of things to say so it just became awkward.4. There is zero chemistry between Don Cheadle and Kristen Bell. And I mean ZERO. Their "relationship" is total crap.Bottom line, skip it.
jay dub Sex, laughs, intrigue, rivalries, nudity, this show has a lot going for it. I enjoyed the intricacies of the business world and the playful banter and pranks between coworkers. The only criticism I have about this show is that I did not care for the pause scenes where Don Cheadle directly speaks to the camera. When one of these scenes is executed everyone around Cheadle plays red light, essentially standing still while he talks. There are a couple of these scenes where they used obvious CG to freeze the rest of the room. There are just too many ways to execute type of scene(see House of Cards) This show could be great if they cut out the freeze scenes.
gpknopp Kristin Bell. And, lots of crass, clever dialogue and "inner monologues" that are quite realistic representations of emotionally violent relationships in this medium. Hollywood swings between ultra-violence and pandering humor and soft-core. It's refreshing to see, depictions of relationships that are more real than anything I've seen. And if you don't relate, it's okay, go back and watch your baby stuff. Like empire. Or Arrow. Not everyone can be a consultant."I was squirting, Greg." Ahh, good stuff. "Fecal fingers." It gets better...
enzopert Just finished watching the first season and must admit was pretty glad it was over. For many reasons I just could not really get into this as each episode has the same clichés and over the top acting from the last episodes and far too many stops/lectures along the way. I believe the writers have tried to add too many layers of story to this but unfortunately most of them do not get developed to make the show more appealing. Don Cheadle is so so in this so as Kristen but I find majority of others pretty annoying. My advice if you got something better to watch, don't waste your time on this one.
