Godfrey Cheshire
Though the subject is indeed important, the filmmaking here is so pedestrian, flat footed and overly obvious as to leave Shock and Awe one of those second rate dramatic movies that make you wish that it had been a top notch documentary instead. ( Read More )
Michael Ordoña
And, to its credit, the film tries for non partisanship: While its a Republican administration thats caught lying, the movie doesnt spare the Democrats who voted for invasion or the sometimes called liberal news outlets, including the New York Times, that didnt investigate rigorously. ( Read More )
Jessica Kiang
But Shock and Awe lacks the fire of Reiners own 1992 hit, as well as the single minded intelligence of Alan J. Pakulas Watergate thriller, so despite its solid craftsmanship, it only sporadically reaches the dramatic heights of either. ( Read More )
Derek Smith
Rob Reiners film rests on broad, sweeping proclamations about the importance of factual reporting. ( Read More )
Ann Hornaday
Working from a talky, formulaic script by Joey Hartstone (writer of Reiners terrific LBJ, in which Harrelson delivered a vivid portrayal of Lyndon Johnson), the director tries to infuse Shock and Awe with the taut procedural drama of All the Presidents Men, Spotlight or The Post. ( Read More )
