Snowden) Review

Rating: 7/10 (15 September 2016)

Plot/Story: 8/10
Well written has a lot to cover it does OK job of flashing back. Some rushing in the story telling.
Pacing: 6/10 Overall pretty good flow, Some parts Choppy
Acting: 6/10. Ryhs Ifan 8/10 plays a good mentor and kind of Shepard of sheep. Joseph Levitt: an 8/10 good portrayal best actor in the show few points down for using an accent but he didn't slip often. He portrayed as conflicted and then comes off well. Shailene Woodley 6/10. good to see her in a more mature role but i could feel her uncertainty in testing out a different more liberal character then herself.
Nicholas cage 5/10. not holding past roles against him but his smoking felt forced they did use him as a character to show off Snowdens knowledge base.
Directing 7/10.
Graphics/Visual style - 10/10. there are 2 scenes a computer board becomes japan and WiFi signals become human eye very unique. Oliver stone is more facts then character development I feel his portrayal and understanding of main character is well shown however other actors are tools to move story line forward
