amankai If there's one thing to know about Bombshell, it's that it doesn't hold its punches. And that's what really makes it soar. It's by no means a hysterical or melodramatic take on real issues, and it impresses throughout with well-balanced and level-headed drama, but its passion and fire are what really turn it from an average film into something both more memorable and worth your while.

amankai In its early stages, however, Bombshell doesn't get off to the best of starts, misguidedly focusing on a number of topics that frustratingly dilute the real impact of what's really at stake. Set sparingly against the initial stages of Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign, the film starts off with too much emphasis on the conservative-liberal divide, Trump's campaign and the cutthroat world of news media.
