Notes
"... what should have been a completely enjoyable thriller was marred by the fact that it bears far to close a resemblance to the corrupt antics of the US President. It bitterly reminds us that what we are dealing with in real life is far too painful to be interpreted and/or celebrated as a piece of fiction. This is one time when art repeats life when we so wish it didn’t . " [QueerGuru]
