Read the review for Charlize Theron (CharlizeAfrica), Nicole Kidman and MargotRobbie's Bombshell:
, set their sights on a powerful old lech and generate great delight in dramatizing his takedown. This live-wire yarn about the stunning downfall of the late Fox News despot Roger Ailes can’t claim to offer up fresh subject matter, as a recent television miniseries and a very fine documentary got there first. But the performances, enhanced by physical transformations by Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman and John Lithgow that are uncannily convincing, deliver the goods in a very engaging way.
When Kayla turns up at Fox offices in New York, she seems like an ideal on-air candidate, both physically — she’s just Ailes’ type — and politically, as she comes from an evangelical Christian family. She’s also naïve and eager to please but paralyzed by Ailes, who offers women he’s interested in two phrases to thrive by: “To get ahead you have to give a little head” and “If you want to play with the big boys you have to lay with the big boys.
The dynamic drive and pace of the film can partly be attributed merely to the fact that the primary setting is a newsroom, where deadline-driven writers are constantly under pressure; infused with constant energy and tension, the Fox headquarters is effectively made to seem like the second-most consequential place on Earth, just short of the White House itself.
