Review of Snowden (2016)

By Jake Coyle (526) for Associated Press (1,685) on 14 Sep 2016

Snowden isn't a liberal screed, or at least not an overt one. It's a sincere, straightforward biopic that, at its worst, verges on hagiography…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Jared Petty (2) for IGN Movies (1,472) on 14 Sep 2016

Snowden does a remarkable job of walking viewers through the ten year evolution of a man from unassuming US soldier to cyber-intelligence operative…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Richard Roeper (2,737) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 14 Sep 2016

Snowden works best when it’s just Edward and the three journalists in that hotel room, sweating it out, or when we see the pattern of events…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Peter Howell (1,731) for Toronto Star (3,601) on 14 Sep 2016

Joseph Gordon-Levitt sympathetically portrays the bespectacled title cipher, a Rubik's Cube champ with an IBM brain…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Jim Judy (1,199) for Screen It! (1,437) on 14 Sep 2016

Decent, but beyond addressing some important matters that every citizen should (already) know about, it's not as remarkable a film as it could…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Marc Savlov (2,019) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 14 Sep 2016

Gordon-Levitt, however, nails the part completely, physically hunching down into himself and getting Snowden’s halting, thoughtful speech…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By A.o. Scott (2,100) for New York Times (5,786) on 14 Sep 2016

Mr. Stone has made an honorable and absorbing contribution to the imaginative record of our confusing times…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Colin Covert (1,936) for Minneapolis Star Tribune (2,416) on 14 Sep 2016

Stone digs beyond the scandal, turning the events into a compelling and tense ride, half thriller, half think piece, a mixture of dramatic…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Calvin Wilson (480) for St. Louis Post-Dispatch (1,715) on 14 Sep 2016

Gordon-Levitt turns in an Oscar-worthy performance as a man who’s all too aware of what he’s letting himself in for…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Bill Goodykoontz (2,123) for Arizona Republic (3,909) on 14 Sep 2016

It’s a gripping movie, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt is good as Snowden (his voice alone is terrific), capturing his nerdy intelligence and passion…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Brian Truitt (541) for USA Today (4,117) on 14 Sep 2016

Snowden’s a polarizing whistleblower portrayed as an American hero here but in too pedestrian a fashion for such a hot-button topic, and…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By David Sims (534) for The Atlantic (1,046) on 14 Sep 2016

Stone used to be fearless in both the stories he told and the way he told them: Now, it seems, he's just the former…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Joshua Starnes (554) for ComingSoon.net (2,031) on 14 Sep 2016

Joseph Gordon-Levitt offers one of his best performances in an imperfect rendition of an important story…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Jack Giroux (142) for Bullz-Eye.com (1,091) on 14 Sep 2016

Snowden is another fine addition to Oliver Stone's filmography, fitting in nicely with JFK, Born on the Fourth of July and other films about…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Stephen Whitty (1,794) for Newark Star-Ledger (1,745) on 14 Sep 2016

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Christopher Campbell (291) for Film School Rejects (1,198) on 14 Sep 2016

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Ty Burr (2,612) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 14 Sep 2016

As always, it’s a good idea to do your homework before or after seeing an Oliver Stone movie…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Michael Phillips (2,622) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 14 Sep 2016

It's fairly absorbing though, increasingly, a bit of an eye-roller, and it's designed, photographed and edited to make you itchy with paranoia…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 13 Sep 2016

Snowden is a film of sincere outrage, even when it strains to articulate that outrage in a less from-the-headlines manner, and a reminder that…

Review of Snowden (2016)

By Chris Newbould (81) for The National (UAE) (421) on 13 Sep 2016

It doesn't quite hit the heights of some of Stone's true classics but is, nonetheless, possibly the most important film you will see this year…
