Review of The Fifth Estate (2013) by Mike_M — 17 Oct 2013
Without a strong overall opinion for or against WikiLeaks or Assange, and without much knowledge of the situation, I went into this film open to it as a piece of filmmaking and not as a fact-checker. As a film, it's quite mediocre.
The worst part, in fact the single part I could point to in suggesting that you all stay away in droves is this: The film visually depicts some sort of virtual office space that Assange and Berg inhabit in parts of the movie dealing with some of their online interactions.
It's something so hokey in 2013 that I'm more or less in disbelief that the director tried it.
