So moving. The arc from a spineless ineffectual man to a steel backboned dreadnought was mesmerising.
A political thriller with characters whose actions surprise at times. Nice to have solid dramas like this around.
Good thriller! A conspiracy in the pharmaceutical company. Good casting.
Solid political thriller on the evils of the pharmaceutical industry
Slow but builds, doesn’t take any cliched turns and keeps it real.
A diplomat who keeps his head down digs into his activist wife’s death. Exciting, scary, and compelling stuff. I should watch this again.
A beautifully haunting and sad film that realistically portrays the power of the pharmaceutical industry. 8/10
A slow burn story that really pays off in the end. Ralph Fiennes shines in this highly underrated movie.
A classic, slow-paced investigation from an unusual perspective of a diplomat. Strongly recommended.
You have to pay attention, otherwise it can become boring.
