Promising start then fails to deliver as much as hoped for

Everyone knows the scandal but not many know the man who was responsible was a number 2 at the FBI and that makes for a promising start. After all the whistle blower's point of view should be more exciting than the reporter's point of view as in All the President's Men. With Assange and Snowden and Chelsea Manning it seemed quite relevant to bring this sort of thing up again. The sinister White House powers against the independence of the FBI and Liam Neeson's shining integrity are quite interesting at first. But the posturing doesn't lead to much. I felt I didn't learn that much more beyond these two facts. The most disappointing thing was the final reveal that brought down Nixon seemed like an anti climax.

Diane Lane as long suffering wife looks young again and so does Scandal's Tony Goldwyn as an FBI men in a suit. Another suit is played by Josh Lucas. It's good that familiar faces are in these supporting roles so the viewer can recognize them quickly. Liam himself is fine if a bit haggard looking - hope this was just make up for the role.

It's not a waste of time but it isn't a must watch.
