    A very interesting, disturbing, gripping story uncovering the seedy, cutthroat underbelly of American politics! We would be so naive to think that this doesn't happen in real life! Good movie to see if you want a real jolt of reality! SKD

    Interesting view of the scum world of politics. We would have rated it higher if it hadn't been for the movie's obsession with the f... word which added absolutely nothing positive to the movie.

    A very compelling story, but it ended weirdly. There was more story to tell, I'm not sure why they decided the movie should end the way it did.
