This is a well-written film with a great cast rounded out by Stanley Tucci, Mark Ruffalo, Michael Keaton, Liev Schrieber, and Rachel McAdams.
Truly, it is difficult to make an exciting film about paperwork. So much paperwork. Todd McCarthy does well here.
I appreciate that Spotlight focuses on the team and their work instead of on the salacious details of the scandal, the priests, and the survivors.
4/5
