Adam Driver turns in yet another quietly brilliant performance as Daniel Jones, the man commissioned to report on the illegalities of the CIA after 9/11. An impassioned film, and one which sheds light on a piece of American history that I hope will never be repeated.

If you need a wake up call why the two parties are often at odds. It's not necessarily the parties themselves than the psychos that weasel their way into organizations like the FBI, CIA (in this case), and other places where people can abuse power.

An important story that was full of information that needs to get out to the public; unfortunately, the execution was very dry and boring. Regardless, it's worth sticking with till the end. A wake-up call for those who don't bother to keep up with current events. Although, I don't think those people will stay with the film till the end. They really should though because it's vitally important. This is Deep State stuff and it's now stronger than ever.

This film is pretty much what you'd expect - it will scare the hell out of you because of how people in power act and the acting is fantastic. Adam Driver really has an amazing run of films going now (including the incredibly unseen Paterson). It's a good watch - hopefully people will give it a chance because of the acting and the story because the story matters a lot. Time and time again we justify behavior and policy under the guise of safety. follow me at https://IHateBadMovies.com or facebook IHateBadMovies

‘The Report’ essentially boils down to the truth and morality versus the administrative state, and a country not living up to its ideals. With America more polarised than ever, this film couldn’t be more timely.

I love watching true stories when they’re able to tell what actually happened in a compelling way. Scott Z. Burns offers the uncomfortable truth about CIA’s denial of using inefficient torture methods, and has Adam Driver proving once again why he’s such an acclaimed actor. Restricted by the g More
