The Ides Of March


The Ides of March takes place during the frantic last days before a heavily contested Ohio presidential primary, when an up-and-coming campaign press secretary (Ryan Gosling) finds himself involved in a political scandal that threatens to upend his candidate's shot at the presidency.

This movie was a pretty decent watch.  I honestly found it to be pretty pointless though because there really wasn't much of an effort put in to any sort of an emotional hook in to the characters.  To have these great actors and leave the audience not really caring about what is happening to them or where the story is going is a shame. 

I would lukewarmly recommend people checking this movie out.  It's not a must see by any means but it's not a bad movie.
