Admirable for its sincerity. Excellent performances throughout.
Clooney’s performance is top notch. It’s kind of a legal noir type movie. One of my all time faves.
This one is all about the screenplay. The structure, the pace. It’s mind-blowing on the first watch.
This film works for me because it's rough around the edges.
Rather slow throughout & rather subdued, the film still manages to be intriguing & effective. Not amazing, but worth at least one watch.
Haven’t seen it in awhile but the characters and the depth were solid.
Electric thriller. Breathtakingly immersive and realistic. Grounded. Moves quickly and develops slowly. Great acting, writing, directing. 👍
Great performances and very well scripted. It should have had higher-paced edition to increase its tension but, overall, its a good movie.
if you like political thrillers and good acting
Best political thriller I've ever seen, the direction and acting is superb.
