Ratings and reviews

One of my all time favourites... Screenplay, bgm, actors, storyline every thing about this movie is wonderfull... it literally is an eye opener too.... Worth a watch in all aspects

Story of Boston newspaper investigative reporters working to uncover systematic cover up of decades long abuses by priests within church establishment . Very interesting narration and fast paced screen play makes it a great documentary-movie.

Most of the cast was unknown to me, but all of them acted quite well.
