How the Insider became the Outsider...

Date of Review:  Jan 18, 2000
Review: Another one of my 'top ten' films in 1999. I was anxiously awaiting this film after seeing the previews long before it hit the box office. I had seen Russell Crowe on a talk show talking about his role in it, and of course ever since I had seen him...

Smoke and Mirrors

Date of Review:  Sep 7, 2001
The Bottom Line: The Insider is provocative and revealing, and the performances of Crowe and Pacino lend ultimate credibility to the story's two heroes.
Review: "The Insider" from director Michael Mann is a gripping expose of the tobacco industry and an scathing implication of corporate kowtowing at CBS. Russel Crowe is superb as embattled whistle-blower Jeffrey Wigand, delivering a mesmerizing portrayal of...

We need more heroes

Date of Review:  Apr 16, 2000
Review: All I have to say was, wow, sometimes Hollywood gets it right.

The Insider is about 2 strong characters, Jeff Wigand, played by Russell Crowe, and Lowell Bergman, played by Al Pacino. Wigand is a whistleblower who risks everything to get...

Inside Corporate America

Date of Review:  Apr 27, 2000
Review: One of the things I realized while watching this movie is that the only reason the Tobacco companies fought so hard was to avoid having to pay the medical costs of every man, woman, and child smoker in the country, as well as every state's costs in...

Date of Review:  Feb 3, 2000
Review: Here at my school, every weekend they show us another movie for free. This weeks movie was "The Insider". I had no idea what it was about. All I knew was that Al Pacino was in it. I am not a great fan of Al Pacino, but this was a pretty good movie...

May Be Hazardous To Your Health

Date of Review:  Apr 12, 2000
Review: Michael Mann?s gritty, somewhat depressing whistle-blower flick is an engrossing study of a man?s struggle between his conscience and the welfare of his family. It is also the best film about journalism since All the President?s Men and perhaps the...

Hazardous Prospects

Date of Review:  Apr 11, 2000
Review: Michael Mann, the best director to come out of the eighties? I really cannot say whether that is true or not, but Mann seems to always make the best films time and again. Plus they often vary in genre and he makes films only every once and a while...

A LITTLE LONG BUT THIS ROCKS

Date of Review:  Nov 11, 1999
Review: Al Pacino again pulls through with a winner! He is the master. And, Russell Crowe impressed me beyond compare. He is definitely a winner. Being in the media business, I can definitely understand the pressures that 60 Minutes must have been under in...

Surreal Look at the News Business

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 1999
Review: As someone who worked at a major news organization during the events this film protrays, I have very mixed emotions about this movie. As a work of film the craft is impeccable taking the viewer into an inescapable surrealist nightmare of corporate...

Inside The News...

Date of Review:  Nov 7, 1999
Review: "The Insider" delves deep into the heart of what happens inside the news - how stories are aired (or not) and how money can make almost anything terrible disappear. It's poignant to note the newspapers in the movie have the O.J. Simpson case on the...
