Oustanding documentry showing the truth that occured, with the snowden leaks. This film deserves every award it gets. It has allowed every man women and child to find out exactly what the government does to "keep us safe". Would give more stars if I could!

I guess the five stars are for the very important message that this gets across rather than for a masterpiece in cinematography or a gripping blockbuster. A must see for any free citizen. I thank Edward Snowden for his courage in bringing this to the attention of the world and hope some day he will not only have his freedom but receive apologies from the USA and possibly some official recognition for bravery in standing up not only for what is right and wrong but for the law that was in place that was being ignored by those in power.
