Being that this movie is a historical biography and a dramatic recreation of true events, it carries the typical flaw of having to convince the audience to connect with a story filled with time jumps, and plot points that are only briefly focused on. With that said, this movie was surprisingly pretty straight forward, with an undeniably interesting subject matter. It helps that it was easy to get invested with Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Snowden, the moral dilemma that he found himself in, and his relationship with Shailene Woodley's character. Although Director Oliver Stone made this compelling story easily digestible for general audiences, people might be better off just watching an actual documentary about Edward Snowden.
