Director Michael Mann contributed a lot of acclaimed and popular films, especially thrillers. Like Al Pacino and Robert De Niro's debut "Heat", Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx's "Collateral" and Daniel Day-Lewis' "The Last of the Mohicans" All his works. Michael Mann's films are known for their intricate camera movements, thoughtful structures, fluid and ambiguous imagery, and characters with complex personalities. These characters tend to fearlessly pursue what they want, even at the cost of losing everything.

This film is Michael Mann's most successful work, based on the exposure of the real experience of Big Tobacco scientist Jeffrey Wigand. Despite the discrepancy between the film and the historical facts, it still eloquently embodies the encouraging truth of a man's devastating information fully exposed through the free media of Big Tobacco's lies. The film earned Michael Mann three Oscar nominations for Best Director, Best Picture, and Best Adapted Screenplay.

In this Michael Mann masterpiece, Al Pacino's "60 Minutes" ace producer and Russell Crowe's Big Tobacco-fired scientist have complex personalities. Watching these two powerful male stars play is very enjoyable. Russell Crowe also won his first Oscar nomination for Best Actor.

Although the film has 157 minutes, it is not lengthy.

The film also received Oscar nominations for Best Editing, Best Cinematography, and Best Sound.

Rating: 9.5 out of 10

    As the saying goes: "Don't be afraid of the underworld, but be afraid of the underworld." "Dare to explode my underworld, believe it or not, I bought your TV station?" The game between industrial giants and the media is really frightening. Even so, there are still idealists like that who fight for truth. The acting skills of the two film stars alone can give five stars, but in comparison, the plot setting and lines are more excellent.

The Insider quotes

  • Sharon Tiller: You won.

    Lowell Bergman: Yeah? What did I win?

  • Lowell Bergman: You pay me to go get guys like Wigand, to draw him out. To get him to trust us, to get him to go on television. I do. I deliver him. He sits. He talks. He violates his own fucking confidentiality agreement. And he's only the key witness in the biggest public health reform issue, maybe the biggest, most-expensive corporate-malfeasance case in U.S. history. And Jeffrey Wigand, who's out on a limb, does he go on television and tell the truth? Yes. Is it newsworthy? Yes. Are we gonna air it? Of course not. Why? Because he's not telling the truth? No. Because he is telling the truth. That's why we're not going to air it. And the more truth he tells, the worse it gets!
