I love this movie so much
Pretty Good
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Terrible! He's not blue and he doesn't teleport! Nooot the X-Men spin-off I was expecting.
Just a waste of time. I had to stop the movie after very boring 40 minutes.
A totally unique storyline with another great role for Jake Gyllenhaal, brings into perspective what goes on behind the scenes of our daily news and what it takes to gain access!
It's scary in a very real sense, it's about boundaries, crossing the line, like when did news become entertainment. How often do we see news reports that are nothing more than opinions because they don't have enough or any facts to report. It has moments of humour, our anti hero is trying to live the American dream based on some online business course. Problem being he treats life & everyone as a business deal, some of which is very funny. But then it raises the question have we forgotten morality and decency in a pursuit of wealth. Sometimes reviews work, I only watched this whilst searching through and found a highly rated film by viewers.
