Ah yes, American government paranoia runs long and deep. Snowden was a brave young man for standing up to the beast. All of this surveillance was a result of the Bush administration's inside job that was 9/11. A fine example of absolute…

Snowden’s book (“Permanent Record”) was more interesting and entertaining. The movie made it seem like so many people knew about the spying that was going on, when actually Snowden was one of the very few who knew about it. Oh, and the…

I thought the movie was good but as some others have said the best part for me was seeing the Q and A afterwards which includes answers by Edward Snowden himself.

Neither good nor bad, slow, I enjoyed it but I don't give above average for movies that aren't. Very similar to The Post.

Typical Oliver Stone: overwrought, banal, good actors stuck with histrionic script. Poor Rhys Ifans plays Snowden's boss, is made to look like an idiot.

This drama/thriller film stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Shailene Woodley, Zachary Quinto, Melissa Leo, and many more. The movie is about a former National Security Agent who decides to leave the agency so he can reveal the truth about the…

This was an interesting venture by Oliver Stone. The ideas covered are pretty interesting and it never really slows down for a moment. At times a romance, sometimes espionage and drama too, it has a pretty good mix. Not sure this movie…

When Oliver Stone loves you, you will be portrayed as a saint complete with a glowing music store that will ensure you have your place in the immortality of public imagination. Even though the real Snowden makes an appearance in this film…

Very good representation of the actual events! It is probably going to be scary to some people who haven't considered that any connected device can be "hot mic'ed" by the federal hackers. That means your laptop, your desktop, and even your…

I really enjoyed the movie it is scary to know along time ago ; people read the mail and sealed it back, then the telephone was "wiretapping" now the computer is another entity, scary on the progression of lost in privacy. Just like anyone…

Not a bad movie. It had a different perspective of showing who Snowden is. It has a clear path on what Snowden was before knowing him as a hacker that leak the secret document of the government surveillance. The movie is really persuasive…

A hero to some, a traitor to others. Whatever your opinion, this is compelling viewing which reveals the motivation behind the man who put America's intelligence community on notice. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is believable in the titular role,…

My husband and I both sat down to watch this movie with a relatively open mind but we found we could not even finish it, it was so over the top. It is essentially trying to depict Snowden as smarter than everyone else in the entire…

For anyone curious about WHY Edward Snowden did what he did, this is a must-see movie. Be sure to watch the bonus Q & A session, in which he participates, via Skype, from Moscow!

A must see movie, allowed you to have some understanding what the US Government has been hiding in secret. Hats off to Snowdon, as a whistle blower!

Very highly recommended. Gordon-Levitt really captures the character, even his voice is different.

Directed by Oliver Stone in 2016, this 135-minute docudrama depicts a thrilling fact-based tale. Snowden has done what he was supposed to do as a freedom-loving, conscientious citizen who's fighting against Big Brother. It is a…

In the extras is an interview with Snowden that is better than the movie. Please spend the time to watch the Question and Answer session.

Snowden is a absolutely must see film! It's brings to mind what the CIA & NSA is doing to all of us. Joseph Gordon Levitt gives a powerful performance in this movie. This a another adult must see movie.

Snowden, a proud American, is now forced to live in Russia as an asylum seeker. Every American--regardless of political beliefs--should watch this movie about the continuous surveillance we're now undergoing and Snowden's journey from…
