Josh:
Maybe the score’s a little too plaintive, and there’s one too many shots of characters looking off into the distance, but otherwise, this is rock-solid filmmaking, and the cast is great, particularly Carey Mulligan and Samantha Morton, and I’m fine with this story being told and retold in every imaginable format so more people understand our culture’s moral turpitude, and how important the work of investigative journalists can be in combatting it.⏰⏰⏰
Steph:
I wish it had been shorter and a little more exciting, but overall, the film does a perfectly fine job of getting across its message about sexual assault and the systems that uphold it, and I especially appreciate how the film portrays the fear Weinstein’s victims had about coming forward, which feels powerful and true. ⏰⏰⏰
