    Riveting. Everyone should see this movie. Excellent performances by all. It's the story of how a group of journalists at the Boston Globe broke the story of the Catholic Church sex scandal and how those in power covered it up for decades. This movie is up there with Watergate, for those of you who remember that political coverup of illegal activities by those in power.

    A very good movie --- not overly sensationalist but carefully written and directed. The result is clear picture of the extent of abuses committed by the Catholic clergy and its impact on all types of people.

    I think every one should view this movie. It exposes the filth within the institution that wants to be moral voice for us.
