Citizenfour (2014)

As dirty wrote, nothing remotely interesting about the way the story's told. The camera work, particularly at the beginning, was terribly amateurish. If you can make it through that, the story is interesting and actually sort of scary when you think about it.

Citizenfour (2014)

Surprised this got an oscar nom. It's fascinating to glimpse the Snowden leaks as they happened from his perspective, but there wasn't anything interesting about the way the story was told - just the story itself. Maybe I'm missing something. Still - a good watch.
