Amazon.com Michael Crichton's bestselling novel was both a high-tech thriller and source of controversy with its hot-button plot about a man's charge of sexual harassment against a female colleague and former lover. The movie, directed by Barry Levinson, turned these issues into a prurient thriller gussied up in glossy production values, virtual reality computer graphics, and steamy sex between Michael Douglas and Demi Moore. Having cornered the market on roles for men whose brains are located south of their waistline, Douglas is well cast as the computer-industry guy who loses a plush promotion to the opportunistic Moore, and he's perfected the expression of paranoid panic. If you don't think about it too much, this is one of those films that can draw you into its manipulative web and really grab your attention. Disclosure is more entertaining than thought provoking (because the filmmakers basically danced around the story's potential controversy), but there's enough star power and visual glitz to make this an enjoyable ride. --Jeff Shannon

Another brilliant thriller from Hollyweird. June 24, 2008 Disclosure is basically a movie about sexual harassment. For once, it's the male who's being harassed. Yes people, it does happen in real life. It makes the story more compelling than if it had been the usual "damsel in distress" kind of movie. Not that I'm trying to lessen the impact of sexual harassment against either gender. This kind of behavior is inexcusable for anyone. Disclosure will make you think, and that's good considering not many movies require you to do anything but stare blankly at the screen. The FX are really good for a thriller and the acting is superb. It's fast paced, well written and has a mind blowing ending. I recommend this for people who are looking for an intelligent thriller.
Disclosure May 22, 2008 This is a good example that men or women with to much power are able to let it go to their head. I think it's good to show sexual harassment can go both ways. I also still believe no means no, even if it's a man saying it. I understand it probably doesn't happen to men as much, but it does happen. Micheal & Demi make their roles seem like real life, they are both great actors. I rate this movie a 8 from 1to10!!
DVD order April 5, 2008 I received the video very quickly. Quality is ok. Couple parts of the DVD skips or sticks. Ordering from Amazon is always great.
disclosure December 28, 2007 It made me think about harressment in the workplace. It is important to realize that both men and women should be treated as having the same personal value, even though they hold different positions in the workplace.
The message conveyed is better than the film itself September 19, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
DISCLOSURE is one of those films where the messages ring loud and clear, but the overall film falls just slightly flat.The themes of power trumping all,corporate greed and the reverse roles of sexual harassment are extremely potent and well conveyed.The films leaves you with much to consider when it comes to rushing to judgments.The story, though, gets a little off base at times with the Virtual Reality bit that seems to distract from the driving energy of this movie.Definitely not the slickest Barry Levinson film I have seen.I was actually a little let down.All-in-all a definite one time viewing.This film could have been so much better than it ended up. The ending was rather tacked on after some good suspense.
