Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

Catherina If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

TomSawyer 2112 Most people probably didn't get the symbolic message.When the lawyer pays his visits to whores, he hands them over the envelope full of cash.When from (a supposed morally clean) Prosecutor he evolves to senator, he gets an envelope full of cash, by his clients...Get It? Who are the whores? That's what the movie is about.Hypocrisy from everybody involved. Great movie!

John von K Just watched "ZIPPER" 9/10 - a very dark and gripping film about destruction by obsession. The central character is portrayed by Patrick Wilson and this is another very brave choice of role after "Hard Candy" where he played a man internet grooming an underage female. How many leading actors would dare to play these roles? He's not just an amazing actor he's obviously fearless with his career and image.The rest of the cast are superb too. Ray Winstone in a new kind of role for him..he's such a good actor and thank goodness he was allowed to keep his London accent after falling flat on his face in "The Departed" trying to be a Boston accented tough guy.

Dr_Sagan I had this movie sitting in my drive for awhile. I knew about the premise (i.e. some hot shot lawyer who cheats repeatedly on his wife) and I wasn't interest.Well...after seeing it, this is overall a good movie because of the strong performances and some semi-provocative little twists near the end that, although predictable, they show some hard truths about the values of the world we are living and how easy is to disavow our values for things that are in the end meaningless.Despite the numerous sexual encounters of the main character the film is not erotic or sensual but focuses into his fear and his inner struggle with his newly developed passion that might cost him everything, his job, his family.But the world we are living ...it is what it is, and in the end, everyone will play the role that he or she supposed to play...Overall: Check it out.

in1984 7.25 of 10. A solid R-rated political drama/thriller, with a twisted tragic/happy ending, figuratively and literally.How does a well-informed government attorney familiar with the ways powerful people get caught and tracked in various levels of crimes get caught having illegal sex? Herein lies one way that doesn't involve any hacking or computer errors. It also provides an unexpected way out.A few downsides like it doesn't make the location very clear, which is important when doing political stories with a close connection to reality, only briefly near the beginning indicating it's South Carolina. The rest of the way it could be any US urban/suburban area. They also opted to rarely use regional accents. And finally there's the bad product placement issues. None of it enough to stop the film from being worth watching, but it does stand in the way of something worthy of awards.
