Superbly shot and edited and boasting impeccable recreations of the 60 Minutes broadcast in which Wigand went public, The Insider matches Heat's intensity while raising the stakes.

Powerfully and elegantly, The Insider reveals a chilling reality: how hard it is to tell a simple truth when big business doesn't want it told.

... the movie goes on a nail biting tear...

As a piece of entertainment, it works amazingly well -- the story never drags and it seems to get a little more interesting with every scene.
