Drama, True Story
4.5 stars
Very good movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio as J. Edgar Hoover, during his 37 year reign of the FBI, as well as the 11 years preceding that as director of The Bureau of Investigation (the FBI’s predecessor). The film jumps back and forth in time and felt a bit scattered in the beginning but eventually smoothed out. Of course I was distracted because the aged version of DiCaprio looked so much like my Dad! Co-stars include Armie Hammer (Social Network) as Clyde Tolson, Hoover’s right hand man with whom, it is suggested, he had a complicated relationship, and Naomi Watts as Hoover’s longtime secretary. Very well done.

About Me
- Mary
- I love movies. I love the big screen in a darkened theater with a great sound system. I love the popcorn with the fake butter too! I go to the theater 2 or 3 times a week, depending on what movies are out. Luckily, my husband allows me to be a spoiled housewife who doesn't have to work anymore, so I can enjoy quiet matinees. Even with the not so great movies, I can usually find something I like about them. If you are the "hard to please" type, this page is probably not for you.
