Kill The Messenger
Description
The story of the dramatic drama takes place in the mid-1990s, when Webb revealed the CIA's role in importing huge quantities of cocaine into the United States, which was sold aggressively in Jewish neighborhoods across the country to raise funds for Nicaragua's rebel army. As a result, he was subjected to an evil defamation campaign fueled by the CIA. At that point, Webb found himself defending his safety, his family and his life.

The script by former journalist Peter Landesman, who recently directed the medical drama Concussion, does a good job of simplifying a complex real-life chain of events.

The film doesn't demand that you now respect Webb or sing his praises, but it does ask you to look at the cracks in that tranquil façade, and to keep looking, no matter how much it seems to fracture.
March 08, 2015
It's sporadically gripping but ultimately rather frustrating fare, leaving us intrigued enough by the conspiracy-theory backstory to want hard documentary evidence rather than mere dramatic licence.
May 12, 2015
The muddled movie contains all the elements of a top-notch muckraker, deployed erratically and to increasingly diminished returns.
October 10, 2014
Drugs, government, truths, mustaches. "Kill the Messenger" is an admirable journalism thriller that takes on a lot of big subjects.
October 10, 2014
It's oversold and under-reported. But Kill the Messenger flies high on Jeremy Renner's all-stops-out performance as 1990s-era journalist Gary Webb. Flaws aside, the film inspires a moral outrage that feels disconcertingly timely.
March 07, 2015
Jeremy Renner is on terrific form... but the rest of the movie doesn't quite live up to his impressively nuanced performance.
October 10, 2014
The story of a crusading reporter's determined search for truth, "Kill The Messenger" gains its not-inconsiderable power by not being the kind of movie that particular description might lead you to expect.
October 10, 2014
A resonant journalistic cautionary tale gets packaged as a hokey thriller in Kill the Messenger, a movie with a message that isn't nearly as urgent as it needs to be.
October 14, 2014
Kill the Messenger does a credible if not dazzling job. In fact, the movie is a lot like the reporting that inspired it: a good introduction to a diabolically tangled tale.
