The Fifth Estate



What I liked:

  • It's an interesting, based on true events, story that does a good job of showing both sides.
  • Benedict Cumberatch is awesome as Julian Assange.
  • Daniel Bruhl is great as Daniel Berg.
  • It also stars Laura Linney, Anthony Mackie, STanley Tucci, Peter Capaldi, David Thewlis, Anatole Taubman, Alicia Vikander, Mortiz Bleibtreu, and Alexander Siddig,  Carice van Houten.
  • It makes you think about the pros and cons of WikiLeaks and whistle-blowers.  What information should be public and what should be kept private?

What I didn't like:
  • I didn't like when they went to the "WikiLeaks office".  I think it dumbed down the story and was not necessary.

Grade:B+
