Rating: 3/4 --
A Shock to the System confounds our expectations and keeps us intrigued, because there's no way to know, not even in the very last moments, exactly which way the plot is going to fall.

Product Description:
Michael Caine stars in this black comedy as Graham Marshall, a hardened advertising executive who has certainly paid his dues, but embarks on a series of cleverly plotted murders when he is passed over for a promotion. Fueled by his newfound ability to kill, Graham uses his maniacal authority to truly reach the top. Caine is brilliant in this clever satire on the cutthroat business world.
