Promised Land

Taking advantage of hard economic times, two salespeople for natural gas company come to a small town to buy drilling rights from residents.  To their surprise, a local school teacher mobilizes a campaign aimed at blocking the company's plans.  The film addresses a situation that is happening in many states.  Of course the big corporation is the bad guy--which might not be necessarily true.  Not earth shaking movie but entertaining.  I give it 3 bags of popcorn. If you miss it at the theater, it is a good DVD pick.  Stars Matt Damon, John Krasinski, Frances McDormand and Hal Holbrook.
