Snowden Ratings & Reviews
The Ringer
K. Austin Collins
But what [Snowden] mostly adds up to is a strange, disappointing movie.
Vox
Peter Suderman
It's an ungainly, overlong film, dull and preachy, with embarrassing dialogue and too many monologues.
GQ
Scott Tobias
Stone doesn't seem particularly computer-savvy, so he isn't able to connect the dots persuasively between the various programs Snowden is exposing and how they work together to violate our Constitutional rights.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
Stone collects all of the silliest clichés about computing in a grab-bag aesthetic that tries every kind of pointlessly filtered or grainy look, but can't seem to fake a convincing webcam shot.
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
Stone's flashy filmmaking, including grand set pieces in enormous secret facilities, can't conceal his flat, thin, psychology-free depiction of a modest and self-sacrificing hero who single-handedly changed the politics of our time.
Newsweek
Tom Shone
As Snowden, Gordon-Levitt is so muted, so cloistered, that it can be easy to miss that it's a very good performance.
Truthdig
Carrie Rickey
Like its subject, Snowden speaks softly and carries a big wallop.
America Magazine
John Anderson
Stone's filmmaking is so off-putting one is likely to forget that the issues he is dressing up with cloak-and-dagger adornments and rom-com simplicities are some of the more tormenting issues of our time.
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
You can say 'Snowden' is unnecessary, you can point out its silliness, you can wonder if its director is spinning his wheels, since he's not doing much that's particularly new. But no other director has picked up the mission of advancing its message.
leonardmaltin.com
Leonard Maltin
Stone's Snowden comes off especially tame... familiar ground with nothing of note revealed... unusual given the filmmaker's past undertakings.
Baltimore Magazine
Max Weiss
It's a grown-up thriller that convincingly makes the case that true patriots hold their government to a higher standard.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
It's a fawning piece of work.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
Stone is so intent on making Snowden an icon that he scrubs him of his nuances, his individuality.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
If Snowden's story wasn't real, Stone would have made it up. So why does Stone's movie feel so toothless?
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
An absorbing version of the story...flawed, as Stone's "historical" films tend to be, by unnecessary stacking of the deck that detracts from the credibility of the film.
San Diego Reader
Matthew Lickona
Stone still evinces his old, hand-rubbing glee in exposing the vermin hiding under the rock marked National Security, and there are some fine scenes... but there's a slickness, and also a slackness, to the proceedings.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
This movie is just rehashing the arguments that have already taken place, all of which results in a discussion I just didn't care to engage in.
The New Republic
Will Leitch
Snowden should be frothing at the mouth. Instead, the best it can work up is a weary sigh.
Tribune News Service
Katie Walsh
If Laura Poitras' Oscar-winning documentary "Citizenfour" was the technical, unflinching, non-fiction version of Edward Snowden's explosive NSA leaks, Stone's film is most definitely the Hollywood version.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Tirdad Derakhshani
It never feels tedious, thanks to Stone's tremendous sense of story construction, the film's razor-sharp editing - and Gordon-Levitt's masterful performance.
