Everyone should see this movie

Rating: 10/10 (1 April 2007)

What a terrific movie. Once in a great while, I will see a movie that is not only outstanding in every measurable category but also has a socially redeeming value of some sort that bumps it a notch above even the best movies. This one meets that standard. It's a true story about Corporate malfeasance and media manipulation by powerful interests. It demonstrates clearly why we must insure the ability of the media and press to report without interference. Pacino and Crowe are outstanding in their performances and the plot is at once riveting, educational and alarming. This movie ought to be required viewing in mandatory High school classes on ethics and/or government.
