Movie Haiku:Many great intentions went into this tale of a promising political operative (Gosling) learning the ropes from powerful vets (Giamatti & Hoffman), but then Clooney (who also stars as the candidate & co-wrote screenplay) loses his nerve, & crashes into a sex scandal wall that is tired out, poorly constructed & totally irrelvant in the Occupy Wall Street era.
