The President (2014)
9/10
Revenge on the dictator
18 November 2022
The authority, power, and money dictatorship possess is fully presented through the screen in this film "The President". The plot's development in the exposition focused on the power dictator has over his people. "The President" relies on the technique of foreshadowing a lot throughout the film. The relationship between the dictator and his grandson was a major element that stood out to me. The run of the president was the reflection of the fall of the dictatorship and the rise of revolution. The particular technique that was the most essential part of the film and that made this film more dramatic was presenting the violence without actually showing it. Let me paint you a picture, a president who is on a run and warranted to be killed for a high reward in return. Throughout the run, there were many plots that highlighted the presence of violence under the influence of authoritarian leadership. Overall, the film presented the concept of family, justice, and dictatorship well. The purpose of this film was to spread awareness of the value of democracy and let the audience understand the consequences of authoritarian leadership. The film's plot developed relatively slow pasted, so if you don't like to spend that much time or can't pay close attention. This film might give you a headache. But, other than that this film is done very artistically and beautifully.
