Naive's Political Movies

In reality, if a glamorous and moving intern dies in the presidential nominee's campaign team, and then the campaign manager is replaced, it is not difficult for reporters or opponents to connect these dots and pursue them to the end. Especially the female reporters of TIMES, don't they have any doubts or associations about Stephen's Jedi counterattack after being kicked out? Do you eat rice as a reporter for TIMES?

Once the deceased has experienced the corpse, it is certain to find out that the abortion had been performed before death. Hide, how to hide?

This story simply doesn't hold up in real life.

The dialogue between the TIMES female reporter and Stephen's two "Aren't we friends" is too white, too blunt, and the theme is the theme. How could two political animals say such naive words.

This play typically depicts how intriguing politics is, how the sanctimonious Governor turned out to be a hypocrite, and how the male protagonist turned from an ideal young man to indifference and complicity with others. In a word, no surprises, borng...

I believe that some of the people who devote themselves to politics want to do something for the society, want to promote something, and want to leave their legacy in history. It's their heroic plot that makes them feel good. And Governor and Stephen actually have this kind of arrogance.

At the end of the movie, the screenwriter only lets us see Stephen fall for self-protection, and in turn threatens Governor, but fails to portray Governor's inner struggle. In fact, isn't the Governor pushed by Stephen to the road of depravity? A man with high self-esteem and ambition, who thinks that his moral values ​​are higher than that of Republicans, and that he can control his own destiny, he was forced to abandon his own ideas, and everything in him completely collapsed overnight. The sadness of a good man" would be more shocking than describing Governor as a hypocrite.

    The acting skills of the three male protagonists make the film full of tension, but unfortunately there are too many terms and passages about political elections, so that I can't fully appreciate the essence of it...

    It can no longer be a standard American-style political film. It is said that it is a secret battle to reflect the desire for profit and fame. In fact, it is still a boring political lesson. Fortunately, the "old cunning" and "ambitious" George Clooney brought the story after the adaptation, and there will be no major flaws; and he has recruited all the academics to support the scene, and it is brilliant; it is so good that it can be regarded as an appreciation. The gluttony of performance. For that alone, I really have to like George Clooney a little more.
