Rating: Null/10 (17 November 1999)

Superb mixture of political, newspaper and detective thriller. This film about the discovery of the Watergate break-in is gripping all the way through. Director Alan J Pakula never puts a foot wrong and is helped by first rate performances from Hoffman and Redford. Also worth mentioning are the screenplay, Gordon Willi's photography,and the production design by George Jenkins,
