A great movie with real content and meaning, not the usual Hollywood trashy fluff with wiz bang special effects! Snowden, a fearless hero, makes the point that ordinary people need to stand up and not be intimidated by mass surveillance on an unimaginable scale Orwell could only have dreamed about. USA is the greatest threat, not nation, on Earth.

I wanted to stand up and give Edward Snowden the ovation he richly deserves. He is a true hero - Americans should be proyd to claim him as one of their own. Makes me believe that altruism exists and we should celebrate those who give up everything to do what is honorable, ethical, and morally right.

worth the see, especially for those who disagree with "might makes right" foreign policy of USA since the 1980's, as well as USA's ongoing "economic hitman/coup-d'etat/war" method of operation for foreign resource "rape" of international "neighbors" ... if it makes our neighbors angry to "terrorist" mode, we have a vicious perpetual dilemma ... the protector becomes the biggest bully if all, and the victim nations want to be bullies in revenge ...how to stop the cycle from repeating: "kill 'em all"?

Movie was a bit on the dull side and I'm sure there were a lot in the audience who had a hard time following the very detailed computer jargon throughout the movie. While I understand Snowden's dismay at realizing that the government can hack into anyone's social media or email accounts, I can't say I agree with what he did as a result. I sincerely doubt the government cares too much about you or I ordering a pizza, breaking up with someone or looking at porn. They've pretty much got their hands full with looking for terrorist activities on a daily basis. I don't think Snowden's actions made the world a safer place.

This movie is very thought provoking. People have no idea of the extent of surveillance we are being subjected to. Democracy is at stake, this man is a hero and those who think he is a traitor will one day be living in a cage. We are on our way, this needed to be exposed and he was very brave to do so.
