When the Weinstein story first broke out, I was absolutely seething for days. And watching this movie brought all those feelings back again.

I can't imagine what it must have been like for these women to deal with a monster like that, let alone be preyed upon and assaulted by him.

The film is a feminist version of All The President's Men mixed with Spotlight, in which a group of journalists work tirelessly and passionately to research and write a story that will ultimately change the world.

Although there is no character development, there are good performances all around, especially from Carey Mulligan and Jennifer Ehle.

To think that this was going on for literally decades and up until recently is just insane.

Brilliant, powerful film.

The two leading actors did a fantastic job. It was hard for me to find anything wrong with this film. I could not believe how the two hours went so quickly for me.

At one point the frustration for Megan Twohey bubbles over and that scene brought a few tears.

It's important for people to see and understand how prevalent the intimidation and bullying is in the workplace. I have had my own challenges, but nothing like some others. I'm sure it could be difficult to watch if it stirs up unfortunate memories.

I could understand it not being for everyone, but I truly hope that many take the time for it.

Brava to the screenwriting, the direction, and the acting! Pretty sure awards/nominations are coming.

A very interesting film about the Harvey Weinstein scandal and the start of the #metoo movement. The lead performances by Zoe Kazan and Carey Mulligan were great. The film had a solid script that kept me actively engaged. I think it did a great job tackling how difficult this situation was for so many women that were victims of this man. The dialogue really highlighted that. I liked the music a lot in this movie too. The directing was basic but still got the job done. Some of the editing choices were a little weird but some of them were very cool. Overall a solid movie about an interesting and important story that changed the Hollywood industry and the world in general.

I am shocked this film wasn't nominated for any Academy awards. This was such a brilliantly well made movie. First of all the acting is fantastic. Both Zoe Kazan and Carey Mulligan were both realistic in there acting and it worked perfectly. The writing and directing was done very well. The entire film seemed to be handled with such care and it highly shows. The film is disturbing and well acted and talks about some very important topics that are needed to be talked about. Overall, this was just a great film. I don't think there is anything wrong with this film and it's a highly recommended film in my opinion.

I totally agree, and 'She Said' is the movie bigger than Weinstein. Rather than focusing on scandalous aspects, 'She said' tries to find the root problem of sexual abuses in the workplace and the culture of building silence, following investigators' footsteps to the core. The spectrum of messages in the movie ranges from personal to structural and systematic. The film starts with things very personal. It portrays motherhood and working mothers' struggle. It allocates much screen time of protagonists interacting with their daughters, signifying that the victims are not 'them'; it could be us and that we have to try hard not to pass this culture to future generations. There are, of course, small but relatable things for women such as unsolicited approach in the bar and postpartum depression. However, this film does not stop there. It questions the integral issues deeply rooted in the societal system. After the sexual misconduct by an assailant who is probably higher in ranking, it's the victim who leaves the company. NDA is used against victims for intimidation of lawsuits. The company which is responsible for an abusive environment forces them to be silent under the name of LAW. It becomes the shield for an assailant with resources and power. Megan and Jodi point out how sexual harassment law is weak, almost non-existent and how Equal Employment Opportunity Commission conceals information dearly needed for public.

I appreciate not only the story itself but also how 'She Said' tells the story. Very realistic portrayal of the newsroom and how the news is made. No frills or dramas, just plainly how it is. In this way, the audience does not get mixed up with dramas but stays focused on the main narrative and the message.

Even though they did not get much screen time, Samantha Morton and Jennifer Ehle steal the show, freaking echoing the whole space with calm demeanor. Breathtaking performances from veterans.
