Good movie. Big cast. Russell Crowe, Rachel McAdams, Helen Mirren, Jeff Daniels, Jason Bateman and Robin Wright Penn. I found this movie entertaining. Good acting, writing, plot and music. But there were minor criticisms. - The police spend most of the movie complaining about the press who is actually doing their work for them. They supposedly investigated the murder of the homeless man. They confiscated all his possessions, including his cellphone. But they don't look at the contents. Cal (Russell Crowe) has to write down the numbers and find out the homeless guy was calling the Congressional aide who was murdered in the subway station.
- The hitman is portrayed as cold blooded and efficient. Always disappearing whenever the police show up. But in the final climax he confronts Cal. Instead of just killing him, he has a long conversation with him as he can hear the police sirens approaching. Instead of disappearing, he gets in a shootout with ten cops behind car doors whose guns are already drawn. What happened to cold blooded and efficient?
This is a good movie. But I thought Miss Sloane was a better political movie. 7/10 Did you see it? What did you think?

I really enjoyed it. It felt like a political thriller that came out in the '70s.

Well, I liked it too. Now when it's mentioned, there is a 1970's vibe in it. Never seen the 3-part BBC mini-series from 2003 that it was based on though.

How was Ben Affleck's performance in it?

How was Ben Affleck's performance in it? He's okay. I've never been a big Ben Affleck fan. So I'm probably biased.
