A movie to think about

A while ago we had to do movie reviews and I chose to do the Manchurian Candidate a movie that if it wasn’t an assignment I probably would not have seen the movie. I am so glad that I watched the movie. It was about a presidential candidate that has been brainwashed by a company that just wanted to use him as a figurehead while they accomplish their goals. The movie had a lot of underlining themes like big business and politics, special interest groups, and about brainwashing. In the movie our hero remembers an incident in the war but he feels that it did not happen like he thinks it does. While Shaw the presidential candidate is the hero but his mother is behind the brainwashing for power. (and she is sexually attracted to her son, gross) it is a good movie for those who want to think a little deeper and I am very glad that I watched it.
