BOMBSHELL

Director: Jay Roach
Starring: Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman, Margot Robbie, John Lithgow, Connie Britton, Mark Duplass, Malcolm McDowell, Allison Janney, Kate McKinnon

The women at Fox News had their own to story to tell. Their story was about their boss, Roger Ailes (Lithgow), and the history of sexual misconduct under him and fellow anchors at Fox. As Megyn Kelly (Theron) is battling presidential candidate Donald Trump about his rhetoric toward women, Gretchen Carlson (Kidman) is debating about suing Fox and/or Ailes. She’s warned about going up against someone as powerful as him, but she pulls the trigger. After she’s let go, word spreads as more women come out telling their story. Kelly wages whether to share her history or not. This doesn’t stop Ailes from his behavior as new reporter Kayla (Robbie) who works on Bill O’Reilly’s show becomes his latest victim.

Here’s my review
