In 'The Good German', an inconsequential mystery set in Allied occupied Berlin in the summer of 1945, director Steven Soderbergh imitates the look and style of director Michael Curtiz. Other then some language and a sex scene this black and white film looks like a Hollywood production from the era in which it is set, even down to imperfections in the lighting. Unfortunately that is all this movie is, an imitation, and not even a very interesting one. George Clooney is bland, Cate Blanchet plays Marlana Dietrich, and Toby McGuire plays an asshole. *
