This movie is NOT a modern day "9 to 5" kind of film, as the teaser trailer implies. (SPOILER ALERT) The 3 leading ladies do not team up against Roger Ailes. The elevator scene in the teaser trailer is the ONE AND ONLY TIME that all 3 leading ladies are together in the…

it's ironic how this movie is about harrasment and abuse of human rights, but it's infuriating show the writers in this so called movie use the name of Our Lord and Saviour JESUS Christ in vain! Have some respect!!!!

very interesting. learned alot of the situation. was uncomfortable to watch at times but dealt with the topic well. it felt a bit like a jab at trump, Fox news, all the people at support them, and Republicans in general. I don't know how well that will be received in the…

I was hesitant to go see this movie because I thought it would be boring, but it was everything but boring! I loved it! It really makes you think about what some women go through on a daily basis at work and in positions in a mans world. Very inspiring.

It's a story that needed to be told. It disgusts me as to think how many stories there are that haven't been told

Gives light to how women have been treated, scared and repressed in the workforce. I remember the story leaking, it was a nice refresher more than just the news story we heard.

Didn't know much about the subject matter, but was educated on it throughout the movie. Charlize was her usual stellar self, Margot shined, but Nicole Das bland.

I don’t know if this is a compliment or not, but I spent the whole movie trying to force myself to see Charlize Theron and not Meghan Kelly. It was distracting because of how well she portrayed her. Is there such thing as portraying someone too well?

This is a good movie, not great. It's worth seeing because: 1. It's a true story that everyone should know 2. The acting is excellent 3. It will hold your interest the entire movie So definitely go to see it.

I enjoyed the movie. It’s the start of sexual expectations from a male dominated workplace in order for women to advance.

However freely fictionalized, I like my docudramas with as much moral complication and human shading as filmmakers can provide. Years from now, it’d be wonderful to look back at something more than good actors, with or without wizardly prosthetics, taking our mind off what’s not quite right with the stories at hand.

An explosive piece of entertainment that also means to make a difference. Listen up.

It’s all weighty, serious material with huge stakes — emotionally, culturally and financially. But Roach, working from a script by Charles Randolph, finds a tricky balance of portraying these events with a sprightly tone while crafting a steadily building tension. Bombshell is both light on its feet and a punch in the gut.
