Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - The Pentagon plodder
Not a bad piece of work considering it's a true story, the pacing was a little slow for my taste. Spader was a good choice for the role, a very non-descript actor was needed and that was achieved.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Exquisite and heroic film
The very best kind of film--entertaining, beautiful, easy to watch, and very informative. This film goes further, providing an extremely rare opportunity to make us smarter about the inner workings of our government. This, plus "Why We Fight" and "Hacking Democracy" provide a critically important overview for any American citizen. "All that is necessary for the forces of evil to triumph is for enough good [people] to do nothing." And what can good people do? For starters, spread the word!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The embodiment of "Love your country, fear your government!
This movie came out on TNT within a month of the start of "Operation Iraqi Freedom." I had taped it off the TV and made copies of the TV broadcast for just about everyone I knew.
For those of us who watched with jaws dropped as Congress voted nearly unanimously to support the war, the movie brings back in vivid detail the times from the late 60's.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful "made for TV" film!!!
THE PENTAGON PAPERS is a truly engrossing dramatic film! Despite being "made for TV," wonderful performances abound in this movie. James Spader--an extraordinarily gifted actor--gives a top-notch portrayal of Daniel Ellsberg, which keeps the viewers' attention throughout the course of the film. The story has a fascinating plot that explores a complex question: is treason justifiable when it will reveal the truth to the public? Should revealing classified documents to prove the failures of the Vietnam ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Intelligent, thought-provoking drama
Despite excellent supporting performances, this movie is really a one-man show: it's all about Spader's smart, emotional performance as Daniel Ellsberg.

Very little of the movie happens in the Watergate time-frame from which we know Ellberg's name. Most instead covers the ten years (roughly 1963-1973) during which he reached the point of thinking the most patriotic act he could take was to release top-secret Department of Defense material about the Vietnam war. It's an engrossing exploration ... Read More
