Never mind the controversial subject matter about gun control that's found in this movie; although it does sway a bit in favor for it, because that's not the primary point of the story. Considering the name of the film, this is really about the title character of Miss Sloane, as excellently performed by Jessica Chastain. The supporting cast of Mark Strong, Michael Stuhlbarg, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, to Jake Lacy, are all really good in this as well, but this is the Jessica Chastain show. Chastain absolutely carries the movie with ease, and she definitely has quite the presence on screen.
As a political thriller that's 132 minutes long, and consist primarily of people conversing or arguing with each other, this is a thoroughly gripping story to watch. The chess game nature of the plot progression, and the political back and forth discussions are very entertaining here; if you are into that kind of story telling that is. Sure there are times when the political-speak and jargon might go over your head, but it's not exactly completely difficult to keep track of what's going on. Despite a few questionable plot turns and conveniences, the story was absolutely worthy of my time, from beginning until the end.
