  • Bombshell is one of those movies that is about a timely and important topic, but just doesn’t quite stick the landing. Kind of in the same camp with She Said. The #MeToo movies are important to be shown, but the writing is just not up to par.

Synopsis

Based on the true story, Bombshell is a drama film that retells the story of three women who attempt to take Fox News CEO Roger Ailes to task for sexual harassment and to dismantle the boys club that rules over the network. The film takes liberties with the story for dramatization purposes but captures the uphill battle the women face as they try to force ability on the colossal news broadcast group.

Bombshell Review: Roger Ailes Scandal Gets a Fair & Balanced Docudrama
5/10

Bombshell is a competent dramatization that's hurt by its apolitical approach to the story it's telling, and struggles to provide fresh insight.
