9/10
Crowe IS Ailes
22 July 2019
Don't be turned off by a few negative reviews that simply complain about liberal bias. This is a well-rounded show about one of the most influential people of the last two decades. I think it does a great job of showing his genuine love for his family, his country (or his own idea of America), his immense skill, confidence, and determination, while also shows his (very) dark side. I don't think it's biased when we know for a fact he abused women and created a whole new level of spin in the media (not saying there's none of that on the left) while also treating some of his employees badly. It's a great character study and a pretty good insight into the mind of conservative elites. Sorry, there are no car chases or gun fights, but it should entertain anyone with an interest in politics and modern media. I think Crowe is a shoo-in for an Emmy, and several others involved will probably get nominated as well.
