this be a movie that i be on the fence about see and simply because it seem like just another movie about a whistle blower . it be so much more than that and and it be a movie worth watch time and again because of it complexity . it be about journalistic integrity and corporate greed and good vs. evil and and stand up for what you believe in and no matter what the cost . it pull no punch about how far the tobacco industry would go to hide the truth from the american public about cigarette and but it never seem propagandize . russell crowe give a top notch performance of everyman scientist jeffrey wigand that meet al pacino and christopher plummer portrayal of 60 minute hotshot lowell bergman and mike wallace frame by frame . these three actor have the perfect blend of chemistry and timing and and fit their character like a glove . they completely inhabit their role and at time it seem more like a documentary than a fictional story . from begin to end and it have the kind of edge of your seat tension that keep one glued to the screen . despite be a fairly lengthy film and it move at a quick pace and and be absolutely rivet . the direction be superb and the camera angle be fast and furious and and it be a delight to watch .
