I thought this was a good dark self obsessed movie about J. Edgar Hoover. Leo did a good job portraying Hoover and the movie had a great cast to support him. I cannot believe a man like Hoover could have had so much more power than the president.

Clint Eastwood's portrayal of Hoover seemed like he was autistic. Leo's character had the tendencies of having asberger syndrome which seemed to make sense about Hoover. But is amazing how a man with little education went on to become the first director of the FBI.

Definitely one to watch but it won't be remembered.
