Simple but compelling

Rating: 9/10 (15 April 2016)

Michael Keaton was very impressive in 'Birdman' and when i decided to watch spotlight,i googled it,looked at the ratings,realized that the film is probably good.Mark ruffalo is always a delight to watch and also it was based on a true incident. The movie has a simple yet very strong storyline.Rachel Mcadams' performance was brilliant, she was very natural and so was keaton and ruffalo. In recent times we have been having movies which either are too much with the expense or special effects or cinematography or a complex plot which may be good but is not for everyone. Spotlight is what a normal person can define what good movies should be like.The story about the investigation journalism which finally uncovers big scandal of molestations also shows us what the life of news reporters is like.Soundtrack is good,gets along nicely with the theme of the film.Cinematography is okay too. Overall i would say it is a very good movie and i would love to more of this kind of films.Great work by Tom McCarthy.
