Probably the best ensemble cast doing pure acting since the original 12 Angry Men. The plot is simple: four salesmen. First place is a new Cadillac. Second place is a set of steak knives. Third place is your fired. It's as simple as that and yet it weaves a complex web of what evil men are willing to do to either achieve their prize or simply keep their job.
This is the cast that dreams are made of Baldwin, Spacey, Harris, Arkin, Pryce, and Pacino are all on top of their game, but it's Jack Lemmon that really steals the movie. Lemmon's performance is golden and proved that he could still do the job after all these years. If you want to see a premium performance from Jack Lemmon, this is it.
