I cannot wait to see DreamWorks new movie, “The Fifth Estate.” The movie stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Daniel Brühl, Anthony Mackie, David Thewlis, Alicia Vikander, Peter Capaldi, Carice van Houten, Dan Stevens, with Stanley Tucci and Laura Linney and we have gotten our hands on the first look of the poster for your enjoyment.
The movie is based on the books “Inside WikiLeaks: My Time with Julian Assange at the World’s Most Dangerous Website” by Daniel Domscheit-Berg, and the Guardian book “WikiLeaks: Inside Julian Assange’s War on Secrecy” by David Leigh and Luke Harding.
The official synopsis for the movie is: A dramatic thriller based on real events, “The Fifth Estate” reveals the quest to expose the deceptions and corruptions of power that turned an Internet upstart into the 21st century’s most fiercely debated organization. The story begins as WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and his colleague Daniel Domscheit-Berg (Daniel Brühl) team up to become underground watchdogs of the privileged and powerful. On a shoestring, they create a platform that allows whistleblowers to anonymously leak covert data, shining a light on the dark recesses of government secrets and corporate crimes. Soon, they are breaking more hard news than the world’s most legendary media organizations combined. But when Assange and Berg gain access to the biggest trove of confidential intelligence documents in U.S. history, they battle each other and a defining question of our time: what are the costs of keeping secrets in a free society—and what are the costs of exposing them?”
The movie directed by Bill Condon will be released in U.S. theaters on October 18, 2013.

assange destroyed many people with his irresponsible decisions to out undercover operatives who were subsequently tortured and killed – he needs to die. snowden is a totally different case – he has only harmed the bad guys who are abusing their power to spy on friends and good citizens – the nsa is acting outside of international law, outside of any democratic supervision, outside of the constitution and can help lead us into a dystopic future – snowden is a hero – assange is a rotten bastard.
I may not be a fan of his but I am interested in seeing this movie.
I am totally creeped out by people who find Benedict hot.
This looks interesting.
This movie looks like you’ll either hate it or love it
I hope it’s as good as it sounds.
Skipping this one for sure.
