3.5/5 Interesting film. Great acting, story progressed well. But a little ho-hum. As a Canadian I cannot stand Fox, CNN or Judge Judy. Ok, well maybe not Judge Judy, she at least is impartial even if her subjects' heels are dug in deep. Wait til it comes out on Netflix, which I betcha will be soon ie 4 weeks.

A story about the abuse of power from the victims' perspective. Although the company in question was Fox News, it could have been a number of other companies. Let us not judge the movie with political blinders on. Great acting .

User review rating: 4 December 31, 2019

Regardless of political position, this is a great movie to see. It moves along well and the acting is excellent. As a moderate conservative, I still believe this is a story that needs to be told. Objectifying women is inappropriate, no matter your political persuasion. It not only happened at Fox, but probably at NBC, CBS, ABC, etc. There is no excuse. See it!

Seems like it was propaganda to further an agenda against Fox news!

User review rating: 5 December 31, 2019

A story finally being told as women have been harassed and raped forever. Let's end it!!!!

User review rating: 5 December 31, 2019

Incredible acting by all the leads, and a fascinating, frank look at the paranoia behind some of the "news" choices made at Fox-TV. Gretchen and Megan K. look even more impressive in retrospect.

User review rating: 5 December 30, 2019

Fabulous acting, and very well written cover of the beginnings of the curtains being lifted and sexist power users being brought into the light. Yes, it is about Roger Ails and Fox, and not Matt Lauer and so on, but this is the start of things. Its One story, not all of them. (If you're interested in something that looks to sort of copy the Matt Lauer thing check out Apple TV's The Morning Show) Anyway, this movie is worth. watch. Well done all round.

Very well done, interesting flick. I am not a Fox watcher but a Democrat. Some of the comments here are obviously written by those who think it has something to do with bashing Trump clearly havent seen the movie. More like "thank God" Hillary Clinton didnt get in becoz her husband Bill is a predator and that she doesn't get that means she was/is not fit for office. Hi see it. Great flick!

Loved this movie, so did my husband.

Great movie. We need more of these "me too type" of movies.

User review rating: 4 December 28, 2019

I’m a little tired of the whole “me too” movement but this was a pretty good movie.

User review rating: 1 December 28, 2019

Where is Charlie Rose-CBS, Matt Lauer-Today Show, and Mark Halperin-NBC News? After all, Fox News was just the beginning of the "takedown". Then the dominoes began to fall all over the place.

User review rating: 1 December 28, 2019

Truly a zero! For the person who referred to Fox viewers as "mental midgets" I would recommend they ask ABC why they killed Amy Robach's story on Jeffrey Epstein, a pedophile who sex trafficked young, underage girls for men in powerful places? Would some of their execs be exposed?? What about the rumor that CNN's CEO, Jeff Zucker had extramarital affair(s), & who knows who he sexually harassed at his news corp.?! Liberal media has a way of silencing their female employees, whereas Fox at least purged their media of the predators when they were exposed. This is just more one-sided Hollywood propaganda.

User review rating: 1 December 28, 2019

Anti Fox. The movie was not fair and balanced!

User review rating: 5 December 27, 2019

This is a well-done film. The number of one-star ratings here are political -- likely supplied us by folks who did not see the film. They think Roger Ailes was framed by feminists, I suppose. Excellent acting all around, most particularly by Charlize Theron who was made up to be a dead ringer for Megyn Kelly. Well worth seeing, except perhaps for the people who think bosses should have sexual access to their employees. Guru Bob says...……………..87/100

Saw 'Bombshell' on Boxing Day (2019 Movie) — Charlize Theron as Megyn Kelly, Nicole Kidman as Gretchen Carlson, Margot Robbie as composite character Kayla Pospisil. Contrary to Rotten Tomatoes rating of 67, I would rate this movie as at least an 85+ with a powerful cast and a compelling story. The supporting cast is extremely strong and the pace of the film based on the true MeToo story at FOX News nails the narrative. It is actually a precursor to the MeToo movement, making it even more relevant. I've never liked Fox, so obviously I enjoyed it more, if enjoy is even the correct term. It is a highly relevant film and some scenes are extremely uncomfortable to watch, but necessary. Particularly so for a guy, even a progressive guy. Theron absolutely nails the role of Megyn Kelly, as do the others in their roles. Margot Robbie is simply terrific, she is becoming perhaps the most dynamic and versatile actor of her generation. No giveaways here, simply, go see it. Recommended.

Serious subject of sexual harassment by a fat Jabba the slob roger Ailes (died 2017) at Fox network. The best acting was Charlize Theron as Megan Kelly (she aced the husky voice imitation). Margot Robbie good as the overly ambitious victim. Kidman was ok as Greta. There’s no action as it’s more of an expose of how messed up Fox News was with sex offenders like Ailes and oreilly abusing women.

Incredibly boring ... hard to sit thru, but we arrived too late to see Little Women. Kept looking at my watch, which seemed to stand still. Fake News film, pass on it ...

User review rating: 1 December 27, 2019

A political steaming worthless pile of cow dung!

User review rating: 1 December 26, 2019

"Based on true events" just means 90% fake. This was unwatchable .. people were walking out.

User review rating: 1 December 26, 2019

Horrible. What an utter piece of crap

User review rating: 5 December 25, 2019

So how about some comments from a 61 year old, male, Canadian without slighting their view of the movie based upon political affiliations? I took my 20 something daughters with me and I wasn't sure how'd they react. They really liked it and I'm glad they saw it. It truly portrays the disgusting behaviour of men of power and their despicable view of women and how a woman's advancement can only be achieved by "kneeling" in front of their boss. This didn't have to be about Fox News, it could have been a fictional situation and allowed for reviews based upon the content and not political leanings. Great acting, riveting and worth the price of a ticket.

User review rating: 5 December 24, 2019

A brilliantly acted and skillfully executed portrayal of the dark underbelly of what goes on at Fox "News". Exposing the ultra right-wing propaganda machine that it is, and the sexist, abusive environment for women that so much of corporate America tries to conceal. From the stereotypical leggy, white, blond anchors that are Fox's signature, to the sleazy, scheming Jabba the Hutt caricature that was Roger Ailes and his mob, to the women who finally stood up to the rampant sexual discrimination and abuse, this film addresses what women everywhere have had to and continue to endure, just for being female. If it's disturbing to some, perhaps that's because most males and some females, would rather not confront the ugliness of one gender dominating and subjugating another, in this case, men over women. Ultimately, it's a human rights issue that all of humanity must bring back into balance. Bombshell deserves all the award nominations it's received.

Worst movie of 2019. Bombing with critics and viewers. "Based on true events" just means 99% fake. This was unwatchable .. people were walking out. Selling tickets about a SJW film with T&A. Wow

User review rating: 5 December 24, 2019

The movie is a nuanced, sophisticated evisceration of Fox, a network for sexist dirtbags. If you are the kind of mental midget who watches Fox, you will not like it. All those involved in producing this movie deserve an award. Bravo!

Two hours of my life I can never get back.

User review rating: 1 December 24, 2019

The movie Bombshell is a complete fraud. The character Kayla Pospisil who Roger Ailes 'allegedly' forced to give him oral sex is 'fictional'. No such person ever worked at Fox News. If they lied once the whole movie is a lie. Fake movie by the left.

User review rating: 5 December 24, 2019

Great movie. It depicted Fox News perfectly.

User review rating: 5 December 22, 2019

You've got the bubble headed bleach blonde , comes on at five . She can tell you about the plane crash, with a gleam in her eye . I came in for the legs and stayed for the story . Great acting by all the cast and a story that needs to be told .

User review rating: 3 December 22, 2019

I liked that it explained why the short skirts and legs showing are the foundation of Fox News. Roger Ailes; "television is visual media" .It attracts old white men to watch.

Great nap, not sure what the movie was about

User review rating: 4 December 21, 2019

As I have just recently signed up to receive Fox News, I found this true story interesting! The acting was excellent! I am a trump supporter and even tho trump was trashed I still enjoyed the show,

User review rating: 5 December 20, 2019

Great movie in revealing the SEX channel & powerful, intelligent women. You know who the Trump supporters are in these reviews. Fair & balanced, my ass. Some very funny moments & dialog.

User review rating: 2 December 19, 2019

Bombshell...more like firecracker. If I were to put every thing under a microscope there would be many problems. Yeah, I could make a movie about ole Bill Clinton that would be nauseating...but. If you are to the right do not waste your money as this is no expose but a political hit piece for correctness in a grey world.

User review rating: 5 December 19, 2019

Excellent performances, fast moving story that shows the inside story of male domination in Fox News.

Once again! Boo hoo

Factual flick in regards to the personnel at Fox news. Enjoyed this film but I'm certain you won't if you are politically on the far right.

User review rating: 1 December 17, 2019

The most one sided witch hunt movie I've ever (half) seen! Had to walk out!
