The slick moviemaking slips over the plot of Disclosure in a perfect fit.  Director Barry Levinson’s film has incredible gloss and polish and it accomplishes its primary mission admirably because it’s pure fun to watch. Levinson  really has done a masterful job in maintaining a feeling that this is an action filled yarn, when  in reality the heaviest duty action takes place in Meredith Johnson’s office after hours. There’s a fair measure of high tech nibblings for cinema technophiles, but this film set in the corridors tiled by  computer bytes really is old fashioned corporate action wrapped in shiny foil paper,  with a big pretty bow of Douglas/Moore on top.
     The cast is an appealing mix of new and old pros. Michael Douglas hasn’t lost the last leaves of youthfulness and provides enough drive and energy as computer executive Tom Sanders to do credible battle with Demi Moore’s ice cold lady exec of the cinematic nineties, Meredith Johnson. The two stars ignite some sexual sparks, but mostly they hiss venomously at one another in a battle for corporate survival. The supporting players in Disclosure give it special appeal.  Caroline Goodall’s steadfast portrayal of Tom’s wife lends a center of stability to the film and gives Tom something more for which  to fight.  Roma Maffia is feisty and down to earth as Tom’s lawyer, and Donald Sutherland does his best oily Donald Sutherland in the role of DigiCom’s CEO.
     You laser visit to the world of DigiCom wont be a disappointment.  This is a disc production consistently up to the standards of its high tech setting. The images are extremely sharp, and quality control was better at the laser plant than at DigiCom’s CD Rom plant since Disclosure plays with no apparent dropouts or excess video noise. The colors are punchy, yet natural. The sound track for this disc is very fine. Ennio Morricone’s score that embellishes the excitement is full throated and in excellent balance with ambient sound and dialogue.
