The Post bills itself as a feminist movie, but it's portrayal of female empowerment is remarkably dated…

The Post doesn't capitalize fully on a stellar cast and story material, but that's still enough to make a worthwhile, if occasionally dull, drama…

This movie takes place over about a week, in which the fate of the paper, and the nation?, hangs in the balance…

The actors were phenomenal. The cinematography and editing made the film gorgeous. The writing was powerful and intelligent. Overall it was brilliant…

It seems somewhat surprising that 2017’s The Post marks the first time that Steven Spielberg, Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks have all collaborated…

Another alt left revisionist history piece as facually accurate as a DC comicbook…

The Post was good but it was a bit of a let down. Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks both give excellent performances…

Movie started of slow and sloppy. Actor roles were cliché and at times overacted by majorly Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks…
