Very disappointed :(
Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
View MoreThere's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
View MoreI just wasn't feeling it to be honest, Liam Neeson was obviously faultless and everything was in the films favour, acting production but it was just a bit dull really.... Not being an American but having 'some' knowledge and interest in the Watergate scandal I kept watching it just for the knowledge really, but even then it felt like it came up short.... I feel like maybe I am doing the film an injustice by not being American, maybe I would have appreciated it more if I was and had a better background of the scandal itself, therefore I could appreciate the man more.

View MoreHaving lived through the Nixon years, I was hoping for a more complete All The Presidents Men. Knowing now the name of Deep Throat, I was looking for cinematic greatness (or at least some entertainment) in the retelling of this important story. The historical accuracy was my only reward. Mark Felt is a movie worth watching, but as a documentary and not as a compelling movie. The Nixon years were a time when a ruthless, suspicious, narcissistic psychopath looked to consolidate the power of the presidency and move our nation towards an imperial democracy. Anyone see any possible parallels to current events? Mark Felt as a man belongs on a short list of patriots who stepped up at a critical moment in American history, much like Patrick Henry or (more controversially) Edward Snowden. Instead, we got a historically accurate but dramatically deficient movie that will be quickly forgotten. Like most reviewers on IMDB, I am ignorant of how movies are truly made. I cannot say who bears responsibility for making this an average film. The director? The writer? Liam Neeson leads an able cast and does a good job. The true story was an emotional cliffhanger, with the stakes being the highest since the Civil War. Nixon was a man elected president who wanted to become a dictator. Mark Felt and the Washington Post took him on almost singlehandedly, and saved the Constitution. This story needs to be retold. Mark Felt, The Man Who Brought Down the White House, doesn't come close to capturing the real life drama and importance of this OMG moment in our nation's history.
View MoreReally enjoyed it, it's no action packed drama but neither were the events outlined. Its like the scandal, it unravels slowly but in a good way. It also highlights why conspiracy theories don't stand the test of time, the more involved the less likely it'll be kept secret. Also the fact any President had better tread carefully with the FBI & CIA, these guys can & will fight dirty if you trespass on their domains - the 2 states that never got added to that flag.
