State of Play

This was brilliant. Genuinely worth seeing. It is smart and fast, well acted and exciting. It is nice to see Ben Affleck showing some talent again, on screen. Russell Crowe was as amazing as ever and Helen Mirren was the same. I am not sure how it could have gone wrong with that cast but I was glad that it was as good as expected. I liked the fact that there were no real clean cut characters - well maybe Rachel McAdams, but other than her they were all slightly grey. Very very good. Go see.
