The Ides of March 2011 ★★★½

Reviewed Jul 13, 2012

A political thriller that harks back to the days of 70's cinema, this is a well acted and directed tale about a campaign press secretary who finds himself embroiled political intrigue in the run up to a presidential primary. the major flaw with the film is that you find you are always one step ahead of the story, so as the revelations are exposed towars the end of the film, none of it comes as much of a suprise. From an cting point of view however it serves as a masterclass
