I thought this was a very well acted & directed film. The plot gets a bit complicated & confusing at points, but for the most part we can follow fairly easily. There's not a ton of action or gore as it's really more of a politcal drama but if you don't mind watching political dramas, then this is one worth checking out.

I thought it was pretty good as well...but sometime's I felt like they were just trying to hammer it home a little too hard.
