It's a good movie about ordinary people struggling every day. And how media can easily manipulate society and make anyone look like a hero or a villain. A lot of problems of American society are shown in this movie. The main character is mad by trying to solve his problems with the employer with a gun. The journalists are mad by seeing him as just a story, sacrificing his life for the sake of a good story. A mad city indeed. Dustin Hoffman and John Travolta both did a great job for sure.
