Movie review: Snowden

[Flyn]

Man, I have to see this movie.

Great commentary guys. You really have me wanting to see it.

Started watching Citizenfour last night. I don't find it as entertaining as Snowden. It's pace is also much slower. I'm about half way through and will probably finish watching it tonight.

Stream it FOR FREE on 123movies dot com. Use a hdmi cable from your laptop to your tv. Type it in the Movie you want in the Search bar. Any extra redirect screen that pops up just exit out and it will take you back to the play screen again, from there you are good to go. Fyi Streaming is not illegal I've watched tons of movies on there .

[Eagle]

Sweet. So what do you think of him?

Sweet. So what do you think of him?

it didn't change my opinion really. just confirmed them.

i hope one day we can look back and he is recognized as a hero, because truthfully to me i think he is.

I watched some you tube video of Katie couric asking him questions. Seemed recent. She sucks but he had a lot of good things to point out and say

Newly Obtained Documents Prove: Key Claim of Snowden’s Accusers Is a Fraud

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

I couldn't find this in bluray form at Redbox. Lame.

Now for my question. If you have watched this, what do you think of Snowden and the actions he took? Should he see prosecution or should he be hailed a hero?

I've watched it and none of it came as a surprise to me. Even before he leaked the information, I always thought our three-letter agencies collected information on Americans. And quite frankly, I'm perfectly fine with it too. I am a big believer in doing whatever it takes to ensure our country and people remain safe. If that means violating the Constitution or breaking some laws, then so be it. It's for the greater good.

No, I don't believe Snowden should see the light of a courtroom. As far as a "hero," I guess by the definition of the word, he is. But I don't consider him to be one.

if we did whatever it takes to protect us from terrorists we'd reconsider a foreign policy that creates so many of them. you also sound like an ends justify the means person or someone that believes in the efficacy of something because it simply exists, like the TSA is preventing us from suffering all sort of 9/11 repeats. and violating the constitution/breaking some laws "for the greater good"? is this a joke post really? many a tyrant and despot has done without these rules "for the greater good" and believing their ends justified their means to get there. never in anywhere you'd actually want to live.

This is where you lost me.

 

[ChrisRac]

So be it... I know 99% of people won't agree with me. And I'm okay with that.

it's no problem. the constitution is there to protect us from people like you.

 

[blck10th]

This is where you lost me.

Agreed. That is one of the most un-American statements I've seen in a while.

If that is his stance there's plenty of other countries he can go to. No need to fuck up The USA with such ridiculous thinking. China would be a good place for that kinda thinking. Maybe even N Korea.

Very interesting read, these mercenaries are indirectly hurting the US by helping foreign governments, once they know what they are doing they will no doubt target American citizens and possibly our intelligence
