I thought this was well made. The acting and the makeup team in particular shine here, really bringing these people to life, but it's also well shot and edited. Well worth a watch.

I couldn't help but draw parallels with The Post which is about a true story dealing with a publishing newspaper. This is about a news channel and more contemporary, more flashy but not as nuanced as The Post. It was still a decent watch with all the 3 leading ladies pulling in solid punches.

Jay Roach's biographical drama "Bombshell" is a film full of female empowerment led by great acting by Nicole Kidman, Charlize Theron, and Margot Robbie. John Lithgow (in a fat suit) is Roger Ailes in also a great performance. A film about vulnerable woman being treated bad by powerful men, this story is truly fascinating and very realistic. Wether it's selling sex, Fox News or selling the truth...Jay Roach's film has dropped a bombshell.

Everyone's makeup was realistic. Interesting they chose to use a moral Margot Robbie as an outsider but then adds in an unnecessary same-sex hookup. Reviews online made me upset about false equivalency/"both sides"---people actually were upset that this film focused on Ailes' conduct when "they" (you know, the "media") should focus on Weinstein and Hollywood instead! Fuck Ailes. Fav scene: Nazanin Boniadi narrating Rudi Bakhtiar's harassment and the lengths women go through to deal with creeps.

I actually forgot I had watched this (which I suppose shouldn't bode well for the score), but now that it's coming back to me, I remember being rather enthralled. I think Bombshell tells a brave story in an interesting way, even if it definitely chooses a forgiving tone (to some characters) to tell it in. As far as the movie-making, I thought they handled the fast-paced nature of the newsroom well, and even managed to throw in a Geraldo cameo to remind us just how gross he and the mustache are.

Although the story attaches you to the screen, there's 0 character development, and 0 depth. It's just a telling of the story, the documentary style, although saving the film from hours of exposition, just makes you wish it were a real documentary instead of this. It is never boring but it is not a good story.

An important message and a good job by the three lead women. As someone not knowing anything beforehand about the story, I found it a little messy and a lot of name being tossed around. *Recommendable

I don't think this 21st century fast-pace & dark humor biographical drama style fit this movie well. I would've also liked the movie to delve more into the individual stories. That being said, CHARLIZE THERON. Amazing acting. Amazing.

I'm not sure it ever chooses what it wants to be, never riding the amusing/serious line that The Big Short did. Given the context, I'm not sure I should be praising the hair and make-up so highly, but Theron's transformation is amazing. She becomes Megan Kelly, through and through. I almost felt sorry for her at the end, which is an achievement.

Well-acted, well-written and an important story to tell. Especially Theron is a stand-out! No doubt we will see more movies with gender equality and harassment issues from Hollywood the upcoming years.

Bombshell uses snappy dialogue and direction along with some very good acting and a loaded cast, to turn an otherwise ordinary news story into a somewhat engaging film. The issue of harassment in the workplace, particularly that of a sexual nature against women, is an important and pertinent one. I found this film's addressing of it to be slightly trivial, bordering on have-my-cake-and-eat-it territory. Robbie's character was an obvious narrative device, and an unsympathetic one at that.

3 V engaging performances | Interesting, if not riveting, story (V much of these recent times so may hold up less well once this partic scandal & specific people no longer famous) Great supporting cast. Plus the spot popular, but not A-List star, actors under their prosthetics, styling & voice imitations adds extra entertainment. Anyone else spot Jane from Deadwood? Mom in 2.5men etc? | Probably helps if U R a politics obsessive like me. Good but not essential viewing

I get its good intentions and the cast is good and so, but I can't think of this other way as a cosplay version of the Fox News' harassment and rape story. Not to mention its sheer ALRIGHT BACK TO WORK SEXISM AND RAPE CULTURE ARE OVER arrogance.

A frustratingly narrow focus and ultimate superficiality hurt this otherwise sterling actor's showcase, cast beautifully from top to bottom (Theron, Kidman and Robbie are superb, with odious Lithgow and Kind's Giuliani scoring in support). If it had taken a wider view of its time and subject (perhaps using Ailes as a focal point), this could have been a great snapshot of its moment - the inclusion of Trump in the corners is another reminder of how strong a more ambitious telling could have been.

When making a movie about real events, I think the crucial thing is to let it transcend the literal affairs and make it about something bigger. Bombshell portrays the events within Fox during 2016, but it never goes one inch beyond that. So as someone who doesn't particularly care about the US, its politics, or Fox News, I was left unengaged. It's not full-on awful. It's watchable in a way that quasi-smart Hollywood movies tend to be. But it severely lacks any kind of voice.

Only an okay movie (script is alright but too surface-level, direction is very flat) but the cast is SO stacked like what?? Even the smallest roles are people I absolutely love. It’s hard to be that critical about a movie where Richard Kind plays Rudy Guliani.
