Awesome film
Beautiful sets and cinematography. Cool wardrobes. Excellent whistle blowing. Any film that exposes truths about how massive greed and corruption are is a needed film to see.
The hidden message is NOT about gun control, it's about corruption and how deep it goes.
Seeing an educated, powerful women with needs also shows realism.
The score is also nice.
This is a great film and is very underrated!
Ignore all the 1-star comments!
About the movie. I liked it and thought it had depth and raised a lot of questions about power, greed, corruption, the weakness of some of our laws, means vs. ends, and the motivations of some of the country's movers and shakers and elected representatives. I plan to see it again. It also brings up the question about males vs. females in high power jobs. Men who act one way are called leaders, women who act that same way are called ice queens or something like that. For example, I'm sure there has been a lot of discomfort over her, er, sex life when I don't think audiences would have had the same discomfort if it had been a male lead.
On the downside, I thought it was a bit "over the top" at times and I just didn't buy into some of the motivations or plotting, but what do I know about power politics in Washington?
Great movie, Outstanding performance by Jessica Chastain!
It's one of Jessica's best performances if not the best. This character allows her to show so many things of her skill set. She's so believable, every nuance, every line she delivers is just so perfect. She should have been nominated for this role for every award show...
Miss Sloane is a great movie which has a very fast pace. You can't predict what's coming next, great performances by everyone on the cast.
Forget about the bad reviews, even if you don't like politics this movie will keep you interested.
It's upsetting that It bombed at the box office. I think It's because of the subject matter and people might had enough of the political climate in real life. But It really deserves to be seen.
I highly recommend this awesome, very underrated movie.
Worth an easy 8/10 - Pro gun folk are manipulating it
It's actually not about gun law at all. Gun law has only been used as the subject of the day, to put the point across about dirty politicians and lobbyists.
This movie is terrific. It's complicated at the start, but soon starts to make sense.
The main character is terrific. Cold, hard and calculating. Great job!
I can't say anymore because I never include spoilers. Just trust me.
Whether you're for or against guns, that's not the point. This is a political thriller folks. Sit back, relax and enjoy it!
BTW....it's not a true story. Don't take it so seriously.
8/10
Good Movie.
It's not really about guns or gun control. It's about corruption in Washington. And how lobbyists and politicians don't really do what is best for the country or it's people. They do what is best for them and their careers. And what will get them money and power.
Lo sapevi?
- QuizDirector John Madden gave the screenplay to actress Jessica Chastain personally. He had only her in mind for the role after he read the spec script. Madden had previously directed Chastain in the film Il debito (2010).
- BlooperThere is no provision under the 5th Amendment to the Constitution that places that right in jeopardy for any citizen who, when compelled to provide testimony, chooses to answer some questions directly and some under the protection of the 5th Amendment. It's not all or nothing as the movie depicts.
- Citazioni
Elizabeth Sloane: Lobbying is about foresight. About anticipating your opponent's moves and devising counter measures. The winner plots one step ahead of the opposition. And plays her trump card just after they play theirs. It's about making sure you surprise them. And they don't surprise you.
