A missed opportunity at greatness

Rating: 8/10 (12 May 2019)

This movie is needlessly flawed and so misses the mark at greatness in my opinion. The first several minutes has the disgusting and revolting Alec Baldwin spouting off some really disgusting clap trap. After his diatribe ended the movie then launched into a terrific pseudo documentary with excellent acting by all hands. The story was interesting, entertaining and fascinating.
Then at the end some needless news footage of events in Virginia was added on where some ignoramus knucklehead drove his car through a bunch of protesters blocking the street and killed some young woman. That was, in my opinion not needed and caused me to be disgusted as anyone should be. I would have cheerfully given this otherwise excellent film a 10 except for those two unnecessary clips. So I strongly recommend this otherwise terrific flick, just skip the first several minutes and the last several minutes. Someone should have edited that stuff out.
