2 hour movie feels like 3 hour movie

Going into this movie, I could not remember what the plot even was. Which can be a very good thing because nothing is given away about the movie. But I have to admit, it was a little hard to understand what was going on. And what I mean by that is, not the overall jist of the movie, that was easy. But other parts of the moive like Michael Clayton's resturauant. What was up with that? I feel like I must of missed a scene of the moive cause I had no idea how that tied in. And Michael Clayton's kid, he was in a lot of the movie, but had nothing to do with the movie. I feel like the movie was edited down to 2 hours because they knew it would feel more like 3 hours watching it, and in doing so, lost a lot of the story. What makes this a good movie is the acting and the overall story line. George Clooney has a great performance. If you are in the right mood, and can stand a movie that drags on a bit, this is a movie to see, if not, wait to rent it.
