Truly Dreadful Film

I gave it a 7.5 out of 10

Best movie of this year hands down!

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

This is such a phenomenal film. The soundtrack. The acting. The script. The authenticity. I think that liev schreiberand Rachel Mcadams both give their best performances of their careers in Spotlight. Mark Ruffallo should have won an Oscar for his performance. "It's time! It's time!". That moment released so much angst and gave me chills. Michael Keaton was also fantastic, of course. Howard Shore gave so much life to the movie through music and it rivals the work that he did on The Lord of the Rings.10/10 5 Stars Two thumbs up Must watch Best film Oscar winner!I rest my case.

Spotlight is probably the best Best Picture. This movie is the only movie so far that has gotten an A+. It gets it because of its beautiful acting and its beautifully told story. What surprised me the most was the fact that it only won two Oscars. I mean sure it won Best Picture, but all the acting awards it was nominated for they did not win. The 88th Academy Awards had Leonardo DiCaprio for Best Actor, Mark Rylance for Best Supporting Actor, Brie Larson for Best Actress, and Alicia Vikander for Best Supporting Actress. So I can see why it did not win any of the Acting Oscars. Even though it had some amazing performances I guess that does not mean it wins them. Spotlight got snubbed at the Golden Globes, which I do not agree with, the gave the Award for Best Motion Picture-Drama to The Revenant. This does not help the fact that I already hate the Golden Globes. This makes me hate them even more, so good job. Mark Ruffalo delivers the audience a phenomenal acting job. He did get an Oscar nomination but he did not win it. Rachel McAdams got the other nomination but did not win it ( sadly) but again there was no way that Spotlight could win any of the acting awards. Spotlight is super depressing but it is so well made that you feel an emotional bond to these characters, so good job on the writing, and hay, they won the Oscar for Best Writing-Original Screenplay. This movie makes you suddenly get more cautious of the fact that, you might live next to or go to church with child molesters. Spotlight is rated R for some language including sexual references ( official MPAA rating). You could show your kids this when they are about thirteen maybe fourteen. This movie is on the list of movies you have to watch sometime in your life. You will probably watch it if you go to film school. Spotlight is the best 21st Century Best Picture. I give Spotlight an A+, for its beautiful acting and its beautifully told story.

Very boring movie I didn't enjoy while watching this movie, unfortunately i disappointed of this movie

It's a story of unglamorous leg-work rather than thundering revelation. The drama here comes from the detail, and the reporters' slow realisation that their investigation could change the world far beyond Boston's city limits. The Church's power is revealed as smoke, mirrors and an unwarranted sense of deference, with journalism at its best proving its worth.Director Thomas McCarthy's great strength is in his refusal to pander to audiences, or to default to easy answers; the correct reaction to the team's work is horror rather than jubilation. And while admirable, the reporters take some blame upon themselves. This crisis, after all, developed under their noses and it took an outsider to force them to examine it. Similarly, the cast (Mark Ruffalo was freakin' good!) modestly play down their characters' achievements and reputations. There is no Oscar-bait grandstanding (well, maybe one moment) and they all look quietly dowdy without indulging in any unnecessary uglification. These journalist greats could happily have rubbed shoulders with Woodward and Bernstein in All The President's Men, and they bring down an even bigger institution.Talky and intelligent, this lacks the glib edge of Aaron Sorkin or the poppy zip of Tarantino. Given the subject matter, too much lightness would be inappropriate. Instead, its tone is led by its characters, moving from scepticism to revelation and the uncomfortable sense that we should all feel guilty for ignoring the secrets too hard to acknowledge.
