About

You may like this if you appreciate fact-based political dramas like Snowden or Kill the Messenger; Not for you if dense, dialogue-heavy investigations feel too dry.

Pros: timely moral urgency; compelling true story; strong performances | Cons: very talky; dry procedural style; limited personal emotion
