Great movie, shows how fucked up our politics really are today. How we vote image first, gossip/hype second and capabilities come in a poor third.

It fits most countries and parties in different ways and shows that a lot of the great leaders we had would never have got elected. One politician who was great at manipulating the media was the worse possible choice for his people and the rest of the world. Can you guess who?
I recommend you watch it, if only for the outstanding performance from Gary Oldman. Took me 20 minutes to realise it was him.
