It got this documentary feel in a way that emphasize the story credibility like those are real reporters and real victims notnot some reenactment of event. That's what makes spotlight special also the incredible cast obviously

Sometimes it's easy to forget that we spend most of our time stumbling around the dark. Suddenly, a light gets turned on and there's a fair share of blame to go around. I can't speak to what happened before I arrived, but all of you have done some very good reporting here. Reporting that I believe is going to have an immediate and considerable impact on our readers. For me, this kind of story is why we do this.

Compelling account of a true event and shocking revelations about the Catholic Church. It is important, of course, to remember that abuse happens in all corners of the world, and even in your street. Whilst the film is important, it should not be assumed that every Catholic Priest is an abuser - as in all cases - teachers, neighbours etc. there are good people in the majority. The film highlights the injustice of the Catholic church in covering up the abuse and despite the knowledge prevalent amongst the public, it is hoped that there is now more honesty in such institutions.

Sadly, of course, the film is still relevant.

This is one of the best movies I´ve seen this year. It´s filmmaking how it used to be with a great cast. Even if you´d already know the story, which I didn´t particulary, you´d still get the suspense out of it. The movie is a real credit to the journalists who opened the lid on that box.

An amazing movie which shows you how far one group can go to defend power and the most awful problem that still persists in the world since the beginning of civilization.

I might be one of the few who never truly felt Spotlight to be more than just a typical movie. Predictable, and no strong character-relationship cast. Very common, something to play in the background when I am doing other things. Don't get me wrong, the message of this movie is very strong but I felt they knew the story was so strong that it didn't need characters who had you truly rooting for them. I felt no connection to the characters, although I could sympathize with them. That's why I feel this movie is alright, noting special.

It's supposed to be set in the 70s but looks closer to today with the fashion style and environment. The subject matter alone doesn't make it good but nice try Hollywood. It's boring. It's one of those films designed with award winning in mind from the start. Mute the movie and it could be any typical Hollywood movie about a president or the fbi yet without any interesting scenes. The cinematography is as bland as hell. You're dumped in the movie with a bunch of charcaters and you don't care about anyone of them. No drama. No horror. No suspense. Don't bother.

@moonkodi The first few 5 minutes (?) is set in the 70s, a majority of the movie is set in the early 00's.
