Very solid movie

Rating: 9/10 (20 February 2016)

Greetings from Lithuania.
"Spotlight" (2015) isn't the best movie of 2015, but it a very solid and good one. There isn't any action, but at running time 2 h it is very engaging and involving. Directing, script, acting are a top notch. While i did heard about true story on which this movie is based, i was intrigued in a process of that was achieved. This is because once again thanks to great script, directing and acting by all involved. Now about the acting - as much as i would love to see Sylvester Stallone winning Oscar for acting this year, Mark Ruffalo deserves his i think more for acting in this movie. He steals every scene he is into - honestly this one of the very best American actors at the moment - he is always different in all movies, like a great chameleon. But as much i adore Rachel McAdams - i don't get it why she got an Oscar nomination for acting in this movie - performance is good, but not Oscar worthy in my opinion - not even nomination. I didn't get that.
Overall, "Spotlight" (2015) is expertly paced movie. While the story lacks action, you will never will bored for a second. The story which was uncovered here is horrifying, and it happens not only in Boston or USA. Every country in a world has got this problem for more or less degree. Superb movie about true good people uncovering people at their worst.
