About
You’ll likely like this sharp, fast biographical drama about ambition and fallout if you enjoy Aaron Sorkin-style dialogue and David Fincher’s intensity; Not for you if you want a sympathetic hero, a softer tone, or a straightforward timeline.
Pros: razor-sharp dialogue; fast pacing; strong performances | Cons: unlikeable lead; subtle social commentary; some distracting subplots
