AN EXCELLENT FILM (BASED ON A TRUE TRUE STORY) DEPICTING THE THE WAR BETWEEN THE LIGHT AND THE DARKNESS.
WHAT I DISLIKED ABOUT THIS WHOLE AFFAIR IS THAT THE NEWS CHANNEL CBS WERE AFRAID TO TELL THE PUBLIC THE TRUTH DUE TO "LEGAL REASONS"!!!
SURELY IT'S A GROSS VIOLATION OF FREEWILL IF ANY NEWS CHANNEL IS AFRAID TO SPEAK THE TRUTH.
THE DARK SIDE OF TOBACCO SCIENCE TOOK MUCH SACRIFICE TO BRING DOWN. THE DARK SIDE OF THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY AND THE MOBILE PHONE INDUSTRY STILL PREVAIL OVER THE TRUTH.
"TRUTH THOUGH BANISHED BY THE DARK SIDE SHALL COME AGAIN WITH GREATER POWER, AND THE TRUTH SHALL SUBJUGATE THE WORLD" UNKNOWN SOURCE

A Great thriller with russell Crowe starring as an ex researcher for an cigarette manufacturer who is fired and decides to speak out about the dangers of cigarettes to the mass American public on 60 minutes. He contacts an producer on the show who is played brilliantly by Al Pacino. His former employers will not take this lying down and they do all they can to stop him speaking out. A superb thriller which leaves you guessing through the film and shows what one man can do against even the biggest companies. The movie is also given extra meaning by the fact that it is based on a true story. The only negative about the dvd was that thier wasn't many dvd extras but this could be rectify in later editions.

I found 'The Insider' to be a captivating film. On the surface, it apparently deals with tobacco research results and their concealment. However, the persistence of the journalist, Al Pacino, and the integrity of the whistle-blower, Russell Crowe, portray a tension-ridden film which questions whether it is worth standing up for justice. Does it? Watch the film!

Great DVD - I work as a Smoking Cessation Specialist for the NHS & kept hearing from clients who had seen this film how interesting it was. The film contains a powerful message about the financial power of the tobacco industry & the harm smoking does to those addicted...like myself for 20 years until I decided to stop some 10 years ago - I knew it was going to kill me if I did not stop! & I have now helped 300+ people to quit smoking.
Quick DVD delivery & great ebay price.
