Atom User Reviews for Dark Waters
A MUST SEE FOR EVERYONE!!! This is our country's legacy. They aren't the first or the last
A must see true story...In a way, horrifying!
very well made
Very important movie that everyone should see.
Amazing
EVERYONE MUST WATCH!
you have to see this movie! very informative. teaches you a lot about money, power and government.
It takes a strong individual to fight greedy money hungry corporation. one should not be afraid to stand up for doing the right thing. Greed and corruption dont always win. I applaud Mr Tennant (RIP) and attorney Billot for standing strong against such a greedy heartless corporation as DuPont.
# Slow but good !
Enthralling! Makes you think twice about all the info that is spoon fed to us by companies and entities driven by money. Incredible cast and amazing production. Recommend for all to see!
Great public health movie to tell people not to use Teflon. Also glad they are exposing that Dupont is a pretty evil chemical company.
Typical, depressing.
Great story brought to life!! Some stores need to be told!
though it was a great public health story made in cinematic form, I felt that the pacing was too slow. additionally, the time jumps made the movie feel abrupt and not as smooth as it can be. but the acting and content was great overall.
It was a super interesting movie, but it was SO slow at certain points.
This is a well produced movie that introduces a topic that has been quietly made invisible. In it self, the cast made me feel the desperation and sense of powerlessness the characters feel.
Will see it again.
OH MY GOSH
Dupont sucks..
Shows how the real world is
An important film that everyone should see.
Both disturbing and important.
Should watch. Very good
Great true story, very well worth seeing!
Eye opening to say the least. Great message about the environment and the toxins of the world. Someone has to fight for the environment
at first you think it's going to be a very boring movie but then your hit with so much out of no wear so many twists it's a great film
keeps you on edge of seat
powerful
Worth seeing , even though it was not promoted enough.
Must see
Excellent almost docu style lawyer suspense story. Based on true events too!
Metacritic
While Dark Waters is something of a let-down for a Haynes film, it’s otherwise sturdy enough. One can admire the commitment of Ruffalo, who plays the role of the modest, decent, semi-accidental hero without vanity or trite psychology.
What makes it a Haynes film, besides the evocative camera genius of Haynes regular Ed Lachman, is something intangible and mysterious. The director’s admirers will think immediately of Safe, the 1995 indie classic starring Julianne Moore as a wife and mother who thinks she’s being poisoned by something unidentifiable in the environment. That feeling of dread pervades throughout, and deepens the film’s scarily timely themes beyond the usual demands of docudrama.
Riveting, responsible and deeply unsettling, a first-rate film like Dark Waters is a rare and welcome chapter in the dramatic fabric of how one unlikely person can make a big dent in the world of social injustice.
