What makes a political thriller?
We looked on wikipedia for a definition of a political thriller... this is what we found...


"The basic plot is an ordinary man pulling an innocent thread which leads to a mess of corruption. The corruption should be political or governmental in nature. The movie should be plot driven. There should be thrills.
"

I agree with this statement but I think the basic plot doesn't always have to be a man, political thrillers can also have the lead played by a woman for example Julia Roberts plays the lead in The Pelican Brief which is a political thriller so I think the wikipedia quote is wrong in that sense.
