Action Biography Drama History Thriller

6.2 / 10

The story begins as WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and his colleague Daniel Domscheit-Berg (Daniel Brühl) team up to become underground watchdogs of the privileged and powerful. On a shoestring, they create a platform that allows whistle-blowers to anonymously leak covert data, shining a light on the dark recesses of government secrets and corporate crimes. Soon, they are breaking more hard news than the world's most legendary media organizations combined. But when Assange and Berg gain access to the biggest trove of confidential intelligence documents in U.S. history, they battle each other and a defining question of our time: what are the costs of keeping secrets in a free society-and what are the costs of exposing them?

While I do support Julian Assange and I know he hates this film, I do find it to be a good film. Sure not everything is 100% accurate but what film is. - @Saturday, August 4, 2018 4:30 PM

This movie makes this loser sound like a brilliant hacker, which is completely not true. The mighty US military killing millions of Stinky Muslims is a very good thing and to think even one of them should he charged with ear crimes is just FUCKED. - @Wednesday, May 9, 2018 1:03 AM

Governments don't like their citizens to know the truth! And for that they call him traitors! I think they are BRAVE and instead of hunted. They should be protected! Snowden and Julian God bless you! This world is only getting worse! When watching a movie based on true events about 5% of the movie is actually true. - @Friday, March 16, 2018 10:55 PM

Truth is a light - by hearing, one sees. Until that light shines forth, persons are stumbling around in darkness, like Jack (Nightmare before Christmas) per chance asking, What's this? What's this? ... "they were unarmed reporters". - @Saturday, February 3, 2018 4:14 AM

This movie is a giant piece of propaganda shit. It smells from every scene. Just trying to spin the truth endlessly. Making the government seem innocent and benign. Fucks. - @Tuesday, August 8, 2017 8:14 PM

"The Guardian, The New York Times, all standing alongside you" so....it's cool as long as it's all the left-wing propaganda rags supporting wikileaks, right? It's amazing how different things are a few years later when, after exposing various things the DNC does everyday that are corrupt and dishonest, the mainstream media (such as the Guardian and the New York Times) are calling Assange a pedophile and blaming Russia for "hacking" things such as the Brexit vote and the US election. - @Tuesday, January 24, 2017 12:46 AM

hm, think a sequel could be made about all the dirty, corrupt methods and actions employed by the DNC? No? What a surprise. - @Monday, January 16, 2017 12:04 AM

It's a piece of shit movie the best part is the last scene "the interview" the Assange words about the movie and how it's depend on a book full of lies try to make the hatred traitor is good and the murderers in governments are angels and the only bad sick guy is Julian Assange! yeah i'm as a lot of ppl have been fooled by that trailer but after watching the movie most of us released that it's a propaganda to take J.Assange down what a usual classic method from the stupid machiavelli govs! believe me the last scene is the best with his words about the truth and i believe in that coz his words is really represent me, i faced a lot in my tyrant country made me reached the same result like Assange he say: "If you want the truth, no one is going to tell you the truth, they're going to tell you their version. So if you want the truth, you have to seek it out for yourself. In fact that's where power lies, in your willingness to look beyond this story, any story. And as long as you keep searching, you are dangerous to them. That's what they're afraid of: you. It's all about you. And a little bit about me too." and that what i did and i still do it in my life to catch the truth sorry for bad english :) - @Thursday, December 29, 2016 1:47 PM
