The Steven Soderbergh directed mole thriller, ‘The Informant’, is a jesting caper concerning a ham-fisted office employee who staggers into corporate corruption, eventually becoming a bungling infiltrator for the Federal governance. The Kurt Eichenwald novel adapted movie is speckled with some truly hilarious moments making for some fine jolly viewing.

Mark Whitacre (Matt Damon) is a biochemist swiftly garnering success and rising up the corporate ladder at the agri-industry heavy-weight, Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), when abruptly he metamorphoses into a turncoat of sorts, pulling the lid off the malicious price-falsification transgressions within the organisation. He even approves to don a wire to assist the FBI with exposing the racket, anticipating cult mass-recognition and whipping up a worthwhile promotion. In due course he involuntarily realises his underlying intentions of assisting himself to the company caskets that finally threatening to off-track the very undercover proceedings he had helped in initiating.

A crude revelation beckons the FBI agents concerning the case wherein Whitacre turns out to be an erratic, deceitful and most definitely, mentally unhinged. In their potent efforts to skim for evidence against ADM, the FBI gazes in dismay as the top-notch corporate scam, unparalleled in the history of the United States threatens to irrupt in front of them.
