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.

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…

Eye opening to say the least. Great message about the environment and the toxins of the world. Someone has to fight for the environment

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.

Worth seeing , even though it was not promoted enough.

Great public health movie to tell people not to use Teflon. Also glad they are exposing that Dupont is a pretty evil chemical company.

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.
