   Oct 24, 2014 · No doubt the movie will inspire various reactions. For myself, I take the guy at face value. He seems eminently sane and decent, a good guy, smart, articulate, good-humored and, given the circumstances he’s brought upon himself, incredibly courageous.

   Is Citizenfour a true story?

   • Poitras is a skillful yet rather prosaic filmmaker. Citizenfour has a few true-life suspense moments, like the scene in which Snowden nervously responds to each phone call to his hotel room as through his cover were about to be blown. In the end, there isn’t that much to the movie apart from what Snowden has to say.

   Is 'Citizenfour' a superlative?

   • Though superlatives can mischaracterize any movie’s qualities, it is not an overstatement, I think, to call “Citizenfour,” Laura Poitras’ film about Edward Snowden, the movie of the century (to date). That statement is meant, first off, to suggest certain things about its relation to our collective past, present and future.
