What to Know

Critics Consensus

Some tonal inconsistency makes 18 1/2 more of a 7/10, but this well-acted period piece mines the Watergate scandal for fresh, insightful dramedy.

Noel Murray Los Angeles Times Mirvish’s excellent cast approaches this sequence like a one-act play, swinging at every curveball their fellow actors throw. Jul 8, 2022 Full Review Cath Clarke Guardian It’s entertaining enough and you never know where the story is headed, but it doesn’t quite hold together. Rated: 3/5 Jul 4, 2022 Full Review Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times Yes, another Watergate movie, but this one's fun and totally fictional. Rated: 3/4 Jun 9, 2022 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com One of the year's true indie gems and most under-appreciated films. Rated: 3.5/4.0 Dec 26, 2022 Full Review Valerie Kalfrin AWFJ.org gamely entertaining ... The biggest problem with 18 1/2 is keeping track of the Watergate figures. ... 18 1/2 might be enjoyable for history buffs, but others may wonder what the fuss is about. Rated: 3/5 Dec 23, 2022 Full Review Jessica Scott Film Cred Steadfastly refusing to choose just one genre, but maintaining a compelling and unique tone throughout, 18½ captures just how ludicrous and doomed America truly is.

Shelley B At a certain moment, I came to the realization that all the money I had been putting into this crypto trading Bot on Telegram was nothing but a deception operated by a group of well-organized fraudsters. They enticed me, just like countless other victims, as I sought a reliable income to launch my own pastry business in Europe. I kept funneling my savings into this Bot, optimistic that my returns would enable me to chase my entrepreneurial dream. I was bewildered and shocked when I discovered I was on the verge of being scammed and would undoubtedly lose all my hard-earned money to this deceitful Bot and its operators. I had to find a way to reclaim my funds; I couldn’t afford to lose my money and aspirations. I set out to locate these scammers and sought justice. I enlisted the assistance of a crypto asset recovery consultant and a private investigation team known as DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT. Their professionalism left me in awe; their methods for tracking down fraudsters impressed me, and their swift and efficient results were guaranteed. The expert group at DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT employed cutting-edge forensic tools and techniques to trace the digital trails left by the scammers. They implemented a thorough strategy, merging machine learning algorithms, network analysis, and human intelligence to pinpoint the culprits. Their knowledge of cryptocurrency transactions and blockchain investigation allowed them to follow the scammers' activities, unveiling concealed transaction patterns and money laundering operations. In an impressively brief amount of time, the team at DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT delivered solid proof of the scammers' identities, locations, and operational frameworks. They collaborated closely with law enforcement to assist in the arrest and prosecution of the con artists, ensuring justice was achieved and my funds were retrieved. Throughout this experience, I was astounded by the team's technical skills, meticulousness, and commitment to achieving results. Their ability to navigate the intricate realm of cryptocurrency and cybercrime was extraordinary. The team's dedication to assisting victims of fraud and scams was evident in their relentless pursuit of justice against these criminals. Thanks to the outstanding services of DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT, I successfully recovered my stolen money and can now finally pursue my dream of establishing my own pastry business.

Thats exactly what happened to me. My broker decided to invest on my behalf, and before I knew it, I had lost all my money. They claimed they were making smart investments for me, but it was nothing more than a scam. The worst part? They refused to give me clear information about where my funds were going and became increasingly unresponsive when I asked for updates.At first, I trusted the platform because everything seemed legit. I started seeing some small returns, but it all changed when my broker started making decisions without my knowledge. As time went on, I tried to withdraw my funds, but I couldnt access anything. When I reached out to them, they went silent. Thats when I realized I had been scammed.I was devastated, but I refused to just accept the loss. After doing some research, I found out about recovery firms that specialize in investigating fraudulent brokers and helping victims recover their funds. I reached out to one of these firms and got connected with a professional who took my case seriously. The recovery expert immediately began working on contacting the broker and putting pressure on them to release my funds.To my relief, within just a few days, the recovery firm was able to get my money back. I honestly didnt think it was possible at first, but the expertise and persistence of the recovery firm made all the difference. I also learned that hiring a lawyer might not be the best option for cases like mine. The legal process can be slow and complicated, especially when the scammers are in different jurisdictions. The recovery firm, on the other hand, knew exactly how to navigate the situation.If youve fallen victim to a scam like I did, I highly recommend reaching out to a recovery firm like BOTNET CRYPTO RECOVERY. They specialize in these types of cases and can help you recover your funds without the hassle of dealing with unhelpful brokers or wasting time on ineffective legal routes. If you're in a similar situation, Dont give up. There are professionals who can help you get your money back.

My business’s cryptocurrency wallet, which held a significant portion of our operational funds, was compromised. I had received a phishing email that appeared legitimate and, unfortunately, clicked on a link that led to my private key being stolen. Within hours, a substantial amount of our funds was drained from the wallet. Desperate to recover our assets, I reached out to Fastfund Recovery based on their positive reviews and expertise in the field. The process started with a thorough initial consultation. Fastfund Recovery’s team was highly professional and empathetic. They took the time to understand the details of the breach and explained how they could potentially help. They provided a clear overview of the steps involved and the likely outcomes, setting realistic expectations from the outset. Working with Fastfund Recovery was a positive experience despite the stressful circumstances. Their expertise, professionalism, and transparent approach were invaluable. They handled my case with the utmost care and demonstrated a strong commitment to recovering as much as possible. If you find yourself in a similar situation, I highly recommend reaching out to Fastfund Recovery. Their team is dedicated to helping clients navigate the complex world of cryptocurrency recovery.

The drama becomes too over the top and eventually absurd to an extreme. The film is centered around the missing Watergate tapes and built around endless whatifisms. The movie grows tiresome and at under 90 minutes feels much longer. Final Score: 4/10 Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/29/24 Full Review Nigel G Highly original and wonderfully unpredictable take on Watergate. Superb casting and excellent performances, and a very distinctive aesthetic throughout. A clever and original film. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/06/23 Full Review Laurence F I really enjoyed the twisted plot and it took a little time to figure it out. Willa does an amazing job in her role and we hope to see more of her in future roles, maybe back in future Reacher series! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
