Our Brand Is Crisis

Starka skådespelarinsatser med Sandra Bullock i spetsen, och en fängslande titt på vad som pågår under ytan i politikens smutsiga värld, hämmas lite av ett spretigt manus.

At once eye-opening and depressing, Rachel Boynton's documentary reveals how even the politics of a nation's life and death can now be reduced to a technocratic shell game.

Sparks fly, but the grim cynicism of modern politics adds subversive weight to the film’s screwball comedy stylings...

Sandra Bullock [...] delivers a performance that expertly plays on her strengths. Her comic timing, wasted in lesser, plane-ready comedies, is on top form...

...the cast, led by Sandra Bullock, is energetic, sharp and gets a fair number of juicy bits to rock out with.
