See more Aug 17 This borders on 5 stars. A really great movie, total all-star cast, and a story that is timely and well engineered. I loved it. An easy keeper. See more Gareth v Aug 6 State of Play is a thoughtful, well-acted thriller that respects its audience’s intelligence. In an era of short attention spans, it’s a rare gem that values truth, nuance, and the dying art of investigative reporting. See more alan g @agenser Jul 28 Investigative journalist as action hero? Meh. Its been done and better. See more Ilja K Jun 29 Weak story as the basis, inconclusive and unconvincing directing showing far from realistic circumstances, in some manner absence of logic behind main character actions, illusive sense of the movie main idea, and a lame twist in the end of the movie - that does not surprise the viewer, but rather rather adds absurdity to the motivation of Ben Affleck character and the whole story. See more Feb 27 Professional active journalist and reporters should not be used in movies. It decreases the integrity of their profession i.e. Lou Dobbs etc. I don't like that industries such as News Media and Banks provide identical services; we need true independence with differentiating stories and services. When Affleck's character stated they all (private defense contracters) have similar bank activity that wouldn't raise a red flag with me. Banks are all about the same when it comes to their financial services. This is mainly due to Gov't regulatory control. When Affleck's character agreed the NSA is trying to privatize our NSA that initially is worrisome and a private public partnership may be the best course of action. Of course the moral implications (two wrongs don't make a right) and psychological detriments should be studied and understood. I don't know enough about privatization of NSA responsibilities (other than movies) to have a more comprehensive opinion. Finally, personal indiscretions should not prevent or influence doing the right thing professionally. See more Read all reviews
