Kill everyone who stands in the way of profit

In the middle of watching the film, Commander Goh wanted to join the enemy but was rejected, and I began to realize that this would be a good movie. And the foreshadowing has been ahead, to be honest, I thought this was a very ordinary movie. The plot is getting more and more exciting later on, with alienation, loyalty and preaching, the high commander abandoned the female intern, he was also abandoned by Hoffman, and then Hoffman was abandoned by Clooney, which also proved that there is no emotion in politics. You use me, I use him, and it's as easy to throw away feelings as throw away a footcloth.
There is one thing I think is a little flaw in the movie. Generally speaking, if the governor who is running for president sleeps with the female intern, he will definitely not let the intern work again. Is the governor in a daze? Put such a bomb on by yourself? Later, the female intern was not strict with her mouth, and seduced Commander Gao, but her mouth was not strict, so that Commander Gao had the handle of the governor and had a chance to turn over in the future.
The end of the film is really ironic. Originally, the reporter "friended" Commander Gao, and then it was Commander Gao who "friended" the reporter. The code of integrity that has been emphasized in the microphone is precisely the least of which politicians have. At this time, the commander-in-chief was completely different from before. He was not a pure election aid team member, he had become a political figure.
A strong cast, a good script, and a well-spoken film make the boring politics vivid and contemplative.

    A movie that is powerless to complain is another gray topic. I can't find a second handsome uncle who is more suitable for acting as a vase than Clooney... I don't understand politics, I have doubts, isn't it very dangerous for such a leak-proof campaign process, because something forces my subordinates to fight each other to a dead end? Or everyone is accustomed to using this thinking to complete their own routines.

    The directorial debut of the fifth diamond king is not bad.

The Ides of March quotes

  • Tom Duffy: You know, I'm trying to remember if the Democrats have ever nominated an atheist before.

    Paul Zara: Well, we know they've nominated a jackass before.

  • Tom Duffy: [to Stephen] You exude something. You draw people in. All the reporters love you. Even the ones that hate you love you. 'Cause you play them like the pieces on a chessboard and make it look effortless. And we both know how hard it is constantly being on guard, weighing every word, every move. But from the outside, you make it look easy. People are scared of you. 'Cause they don't understand how you do it, and they love you for it. And that is the most valuable thing in this business. The ability to win people's respect by making them mistake their fear for love.
