Über diesen Film

Inspired by real events and the experiences of ex-FBI agent Michael German, Imperium follows Nate Foster, an idealistic young FBI agent who is selected to go undercover amongst a group of white supremacists suspected of initiating a terrorist plot. Immersed in a deeply unsettling, hate-filled world, Nate must fight to maintain control of his own beliefs and principles whilst working to identify the threat and keeping his true identity and motives a secret. Starring Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter, Now You See Me 2) as Foster in what is being hailed as his most powerful, transformative role to date, and featuring an outstanding supporting performance from Toni Collette (Miss You Already, Krampus) as his wisecracking fellow FBI agent, Imperium also features a stellar supporting cast, including Burn Gorman (Torchwood, The Dark Knight Rises), Tracy Letts (The Big Short, Homeland), Nestor Carbonell (The Dark Knight Rises, Bates Motel), and Sam Trammell (True Blood, The Fault in Our Stars).

Bewertungen und Rezensionen

Good film. Great performance from Radcliffe as a smart FBI agent initially out of his depth undercover. He learns to relate to the people in the fascist movement and finds himself in deep. The movie explores the current zeitgeist well and exposes how easy it has become to normalise and understand the roots of white victim hood. A thing understood is a thing defeated. Luv and Peace.

Radcliffe's attempt at real acting is atrocious. It made me cringe watching this film, I found it unnerving for all the wrong reasons. His acting is clearly limited to Harry Potter. He should stick to what he knows best. I would have given this no stars if I could.

We need a season 300 of Harry Potter.Please stop with the adult movies.I just cannot take this kid/guy/manchild serious.
