The Fifth Estate
Hackers, Whistle Blowers, & Investigative Reporters... oh my!
As bloggers in opposition of mainstream press (also known as the Fifth Estate), WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and his colleague Daniel Domscheit-Berg (Daneil Bruhl) team up on a quest to expose deception & corruption of power all around the world. The portrayals by this two actors are excellent. This well-crafted film gives you a behind-the-scenes view of yesterday's headline news. Your opinion about WikiLeaks' mission and tactics will probably sway your bias towards this interesting, but dry film.
Alien gives it 2 "courage is contagious" stars out of 4.
