Especially the tycoon character, many people say this is the first time that a movie has a true boss in all aspects of charisma, acting and even dressing style. Also accept to cut it off so that I can let a smaller audience in. I don’t do it. Unfortunately, the crew advises viewers under the age of 18 not to watch.”
