The Ides of March (2011)

Left me very coldddd. Not because it's bad movie, but due to the not-so-subtle reminder of just how dirty politics can be. The plot wasn't anything new, but this is an actor's movie and everyone brought their A-game. The Hoffman/Giamatti matchup was worth the price of admisssion.

The Ides of March (2011)

A great, albeit well timed movie about modern American politics. It's like the total opposite of a coming of age movie, maybe I'll coin a new term a "coming of jade" movie. A bright eyed adult male on his journey to becoming a bitter and jaded man.
