CGiii Comment

Neither Julian Assange nor Bradley Manning were interviewed for this overly long, self-serving, agenda-laden documentary...it throws up more questions than it answers - correction...it answers no questions whatsoever.

Assange is presented as a narcissistic, egotistical maniac.

Manning as an unstable, gender confused lunatic...serving in the army...yeah, yeah, don't ask, don't tell...

Adrian Lamo...this boy desperately needs urgent and intensive medical help - his final scene is not so much as gut-wrenching, although your guts will be wrenched followed rapidly by a fit of projectile vomiting.

Gibney - the Oscar-winning director - has made a film that is entrenched in bias with a supporting cast of back-stabbing, self-serving careerists...it all makes for some remarkably unpleasant viewing. His obvious agenda is nothing but a disgusting liberty. He should be condemned for his incompetence...a film about two men, neither of whom were allowed to speak for themselves.

This is NOT documentary film-making...this is exploitation, a most insipid film.
