An entertaining, if not always enjoyable, picture than exudes a palpable sense of the newsroom.

Rating: 7/10 (8 March 2018)

Though there's not much flair and 'Spotlight (2015)' feels far too long, this true-story conspiracy uncovering is a pretty compelling and rather raw affair compounded by a consistent sense of realism and several superb central performances. It does often rely too heavily on the fact it's based around real-life, nerve-touching events to garner an emotional reaction from some basic tactics or otherwise almost boring moments, but overall it's an entertaining if not always enjoyable picture that gets its themes across while always exuding a palpable sense of the newsroom. 7/10
