Snowden (2016) Review


Director Oliver Stone goes from war type movies to political/biography movie with this based on true events "tale". The movie tackles a problem that exists for a long time and still existing, that being "the government watches you at every step" and it does so in a more secure and safe way. Unfortunately this takes a bit of the impact that a story like this will have, as though the director thought the NSA or the CIA will come knocking. We have a brilliant performance by Joseph Gordon-Levitt and the other actors do a pretty good job as well. Some scenes have some intensity, like the rubix cube scene, but that's the only one. The story was told in the best possible way but, like I said, they played it safe. The ending is special and very well done, but no spoilers. The movie is good not great and definitely not one of Oliver Stone's best.7.5/10
