A marvellous film. Intelligently written, beautifully photographed, intelligently directed, and with great performances by everyone involved - what more do you want? A well presented overview of the ghastliness that was the McCarthy era. Educational and very entertaining.

A BEAUTIFULLY ACTED FILM,WITH GEORGE CLOONEY AS DIRECTOR,PROVING HE IS MUCH MORE THAN A PRETTY FACE. THE TENSION AND FEAR OF THE TIME DURING THE McARTHY WITCH HUNTS IS CONVINCINGLY PORTRAYED.IT ALSO SHOWS THE IMPORTANCE OF THE MEDIA IN EXPOSING CORRUPT AND UNFAIR PRACTICES. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT FIM WHICH SHOULD BE WATCHED BY EVERYONE WHO HAS ANY CONCERN ABOUT THE EROSION OF HUMAN RIGHTS.WELL DONE GEORGE AND ALL CONCERNED.
A very real and powerful story that sweeps along and keeps you interested. Some nice plot twists and a wonderful insight into the time and place. So very well acted and directed there is just nothing that was bad about it. It is in black and white though so if you have problems watching anything not in colour you may only find it OK insted of excellent, but you could never rate it as bad!
Had already seen and enjoyed this at the cinema. I enjoyed it even more the 2nd time. Acting, music and cinematography were excellent. I have now passed it around my family for them to enjoy Excellent item and great quality
