I can't say I liked it

Rating: Null/10 (25 July 2010)

This film is about several broadcast journalists who were not afraid to expose the fear-inducing scam of a mighty senator.
"Good Night, and Good Luck" tells a story that is not familiar to me. In fact, it is a story that is so distant to me that I don't think I care about it. Maybe it is this reason that the film failed to captivate me. I get the feeling that I have watched a documentary, but it has got nothing to do with me. Another thing that bothers me is the more than plentiful placements of cigarettes. It seems that people on screen need to have a cigarette in hand. There is even a TV advertisement for a certain brand of cigarettes in the film. Despite the well composed dialogs, I could not find myself liking the film.
