No explosion at all

The news of a TV anchor who exposed the sexual harassment of company executives is called "Breaking News" for some reason. Isn't this kind of news common in this circle? The story revolves around three employees of Fox News, Nicole Kidman's Gingerley, a veteran Fox anchor, who is preparing to expose Roger's scandal because he was recently changed by company executive Roger. Meghan, played by Richards Theron, is a popular Fox anchor who is working on a show about presidential candidate Trump. Because the show's exposure of feminism was angering Trump, Meghan was placed on leave by the upper management to avoid Trump's confrontation. After returning from vacation, Meghan had to bow to Trump due to reality. Margot Robbie plays Kayla, a newcomer to Fox who is preparing to realize her dream at Fox. One day, he was suddenly taught the second floor where Roger was located. This meeting with Roger made Kayla a little overwhelmed, but Kayla really became happy at work. This all started to change when Meghan was fired by Roger, and the plot was back on track. Meghan's dismissal directly allowed her to expose Roger's scandal without reservation, which caused a huge stir in Fox. Qin Ge Lei, who had the same experience, was struggling and tangled in his heart at this time. And Kayla, who had just been sexually harassed by Roger, was developing in a good direction, and was unwilling to be involved in this action to expose Roger at this time. As more and more employees who were sexually harassed by Roger came forward, Qin Ge Lei finally came forward. In the end, although Roger was fired by Fox, he still received a high severance payment from Fox, and Kayla was disappointed with Fox and left.

To be honest, the first half of the movie has been talking about feminism-related things, and this part seems to be mainly Qin Ge Lei as the protagonist, and even the whole movie is the protagonist of Qing Lei. The previous paragraph was too long, and even thought it was a Fox promotional film. And then about the allegations against Roger, I was wondering why it wasn't reported or rejected, but waited until I left Fox. Are women really so humble in the American workplace? Compared to Richards, Nicole Kidman is indeed old, and it doesn't even feel like a generation compared to Tom Cruise. And Margot Robbie's makeup looks ten years older, I don't know if she has a grudge against the makeup artist. The only one who looks domineering is Richards Theron, I don't know if it is because he is a producer - "Bombshell"

    In a realistic workplace ecology, the three female protagonists have expressed the helplessness and suffering in the workplace from different perspectives, whether to be dumb and oppressed for the family, or to abandon self-esteem for the ideal, or to stand up to injustice, each choice decides face unknown consequences. "Don't complain about your boss", "The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked", simple and straightforward dialogues, which describe the workplace culture in great detail. At the end of the movie, the photos on the table are taken out and put away, which seems to reflect the helplessness that even if the person is changed, it does not mean that the company can change from now on, and everything is still the same. The only option is to leave. This is a movie that can only be understood if you have experienced the baptism of the workplace.
