"Official Secrets" is praised for its strong performances by top British actors and compelling storytelling. It's compared to "All the President's Men" and suggested as a valuable educational resource for understanding governmental errors. The writing is highlighted as excellent, with no explicit criticism noted.
Having some of the best British actors play such strong characters, leads to a great story. It deserves to be preserved as one of the most significant to the era. Similar to ‘All the Presidents Men’, this movie should be included as part of Social Sciences curriculum so future generations can learn from the lies and errors made by our governments.
Top movie. Amazing (true) story. Some of the best actors of our generation. Excellent writing. Superb.
