Handsome, unflappable U.S. Congressman Stephen Collins is the future of his political party: an honorable appointee who serves as the chairman of a committee overseeing defense spending. All eyes are upon the rising star to be his party's contender for the upcoming presidential race. Until his research assistant/mistress is brutally murdered and buried secrets come tumbling out.
D.C. reporter Cal McCaffrey has the dubious fortune of both an old friendship with Collins and a ruthless editor, Cameron, who has assigned him to investigate. As he and partner Della try to uncover the killer's identity, McCaffrey steps into a cover-up that threatens to shake the nation's power structures. And in a town of spin-doctors and wealthy politicos, he will discover one truth: when billions are at stake, no one's integrity, love or life is ever safe.
Directed by Kevin Macdonald. Starring Russell Crowe, Ben Affleck, Rachel McAdams and Helen Mirren.

I'll definitely be seeing the movie - it was literally filmed in my backyard -
That's cool Washwords. I like it
And, crucially, "based on the TV series by Paul Abbott". Bet it won't be as good, but we'll see.
