Investigative drama

Rating: 4/10 (28 August 2017)

Biographical drama about the research by the Boston Globe' Spotlight team on the scandal of child abuse by priests covered up by the local archdiocese. It's an investigative drama, but that's it: good acting, but nothing extraordinary that would take this film to win the Oscars for best movie and screenplay. Reasonable information documentary type, yes; good movie, no. What we see is just some people scheduling some interviews and asking other people questions to gather information and publish an article. Where's the story in that for a movie? By the way, why does not Hollywood make a movie about 'pedophilia in Hollywood'?
