Critics Consensus: While not exactly exposing revelatory truths, The Ides of March is a supremely well-acted drama that moves at a measured, confident clip.

Sean Axmaker

It’s ultimately less political thriller or election allegory than morality play in partisan dress.

Here’s a film about the death of idealism at the hands of a compromised political and electoral system. And sadly, it’s told with enough realism and basis in truth to make it a disheartening tragedy for every American.

...the story has too many lulls wrapped around its few high points.

This is the film that fans of TV's House of Cards and The Good Wife, or the Joan Allen-starrer The Contender, should lap up.
