Keira is the only bright spot

Adapted from the true story of the British Whistleblower (all real characters in this film basically have wiki entries). I feel that the document is nothing great. The United States monitors the representatives of the members of the UN Security Council. I think everyone does this all the time. Moreover, because France clearly stated that it would vote against this Resolution 2, Britain and the United States did not (dare) to vote at all. Britain and the United States sent troops directly, regardless of the pretentious overlord. Unnecessary charges, tens of millions of people marching, and allies protesting against global condemnation, nothing can stop the Bush Administration’s determination to oust Saddam. The irony is that the frontal war was won within one month, but the next eight years of occupation dragged the United States into the quagmire. The Iraqi life was devastated and the cancer of ISIS was also born. It was really clever but was mistaken by cleverness. I lost my wife and broke down.

Sorry to pull it far. It is estimated that the director of the film also knows that it is not enough for a civilian to leak information (except for a little discussion of the choice between conscience and loyalty), so the second half obviously draws the main line up to the rationality of the war in Iraq. In this way, the theme is sublimated, but the protagonist's sense of existence is also reduced, not to mention that its role is also diluted by reporters, lawyers, and the government's mixed story line. The character of the protagonist is somewhat erratic, jealous for a while, panicked, and awe-inspiring; it's hard for Keira's sister, no wonder its interpretation is well received.

    Seeing such a movie based on a true event, what kind of touch does it have for us Chinese people? "My God, the heroine leaked state secrets for a while, and committed such a catastrophic disaster. She was accused in court and let it go without saying anything, and she became a public hero. Conquering counselor like this will still be punished. To be portrayed as a buffoon who bullies little people, I have to express serious envy to a British citizen."
