Movie Review Official Secrets (15)Wednesday, 6 November 2019 | Admin Movie Review Official Secrets (15) 1hr 52m Biography, Drama Romance The true story of a British whistleblower who leaked information to the press about an illegal NSA spy operation designed to push the UN Security Council into sanctioning the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Director: Gavin Hood Stars: Matthew Goode, Keira Knightley, MyAnna Buring, Matt Smith. Any Good? These real newspaper whistleblower dramas can be a little long and hard work, but happily, this keeps your interest throughout. Great production values and a great story that had me flip-flopping on who I was sticking up for but by the end was happy and uplifted with the conclusion to the sorry tale. Knightly carries the film throughout, ably assisted by a mix of good acting talent. A really good Political thriller. MGN Rating 7.5/10 IMDB rating 7.4/10 Metascore (Critics) Rating 6.3/10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3vIYy38Fys |
