Film Preview: Knife Fight

No it's not a terrible Sylvester Stallone movie, Rob Lowe (who is really just Sam Seaborn from the West Wing) stars in this political thriller. The casting of Lowe is probably still motivated from his success in the West Wing and is hoping to pull fans of the show into the movie. The film premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2012

The premise based around the question, if a political candidate is personally flawed, but stands to make a positive difference in millions of lives, would you help him win? Paul Turner, played by Lowe, is a top political strategist who can work the media to portray anybody how he wants them to be seen but over time realises that his work suddenly begins to haunt him.

Knife Fight does not have a scheduled release date in the UK yet but is out this week in America. The trailer is embedded below:
