Review of The Ides of March (2011) by Ryan K — 04 Jun 2013
This is an acting fueled film. For the first half of you are inside the democratic campaign for presidency. Although there is very little surprising conflict to any election, the conversational scenes are well written and character played by Gosling, Giamatti and Hoffman are just short of flawless.
Just short of an hour into it, the film goes from the most interesting possible converge of a democratic convention to a movie about scandal. Here it seems questionable weather the film will turn for better or worse.
One thing is for sure, when the scandal arises it does not fail the audience in curiosity and only asks more of them. Moral is first used simply to which side a man will play when it comes to his beliefs of his nation.
Secondly, the moral is brought within his own personal life effecting his idea of an ideal presidential candidate. This issue grows alongside the original conflicts making for an intriguing and some what disturbing view of political shame.
