Decent.

Rating: 7/10 (26 April 2019)

This movie was just fine. It had a good through line, a solid story of corruption and dectiet and the game shows were certainly doing a good deal in ways of making the film engaging. The likes of Ralph Fiennes and John Turturro give terrific dramatic performances in it. Unfortunately, the film was not too special to me. I brought up the whole thing with the system behind the game shows, the dynamic there, and while it is still well done , I have seen it before and nothing really makes it stand out too much. That whole commentary on the mind-controlling television is growing stale. Not a bad film, just one I personally felt was a bit ordinary.
