The story was a great one about how a revolutionizing idea will live on even after the inventor is thrown aside. Yet the story mainly focus on how the big names in industries will only think of their own gains and advantages to reap from the market by keeping their own outdated innovations and not letting the people to get the best that ideas can offer. The acting is a decent overall. Jeff Bridges gets into character nicely in he managed to maintain Tucker's almost persistent smile yet he can give out the heated anger scenes the live they need. It's nice too see Elias Koteas and Christian Slater adding the right tone here. Joan Allen has also did a good job in completing the spouses and family scenes well.
