Review of Spotlight (2015) by Moviemitch96 — 21 Nov 2015

It certainly left me and everyone else in the theater with a strong feeling of uneasiness at the very end, however, that's what made it all the more powerful and notable for me! I was only somewhat familiar with the subject matter of the film going in, but that made it all the more interesting and informative to me! The script was clearly very well thought out, as the dialogue was crisp and engaging! Among many of these great aspects of the film, the best was easily the film's ensemble! It served as a great showcase for everyone involved, most notably Michael Keaton and Mark Ruffalo who both deserve supporting actor nominations at the Academy awards this year! Overall, despite some slow moments, they're easily made up for through the film's intriguing screenplay and fantastic acting! Definitely the best fact-based drama I've seen all year! Expand.
