Saw this yesterday.
Good solid investigative journalism film, reminiscent of All The President's Men.
Won't suit everyone because it's very slow and methodical and largely understated. In fact it's only the scenes where it's not so understated that didn't really work for me.
Good performances all round but (and I know this will be at odds with most other viewers) would have liked Ruffalo's character to be dialled down a touch. I know he was there as contrast but I didn't need it.
Some slightly heavy-handed imagery at times but positive feelings overall.
