    A great crime drama
    This is a great movie based on a true crime story. A female nurse become inadvertently involved in a police investigation into the death of a patient. She begins to suspect her male colleague may be involved the death and that of a number of other patients.

    She becomes conflicted due to his kindness and support to her and her family. He also provides her additional assistance at work and becomes her confidant.

    The movie also deals with Hospitals as a money making business, which puts profits ahead of patient safety. The Hospital Boards are shown to actively pursue risk management strategies including delaying and hiding investigations, failure to disclose information and removing employees who may have harmed patients.

    The movie also touches on the difficulties which can occur around Health Insurance provided by the employer.

    The acting is great and the story line is solid portraying the conflicting priorities of the Police, Hospital Board and Hospital Employees. It is also shows the issues at hand in an insightful and thoughtful manner.

    Good movie, fantastic performances
    The script is quite good ant tight, i wouldn't say its amazing but definitely good.

    The story is a real story and a really good story.

    The directing is very good with some very good shots and very good camera movement.

    The story itself is interesting and captivating, i myself after the movie read about charlie cullen and the things he has done, and the movie is actually very accurate to the things that actually happened, so the story is great and made with a really good writing and script, and the dialogues were never boring.

    But the best thing about the movie were the 2 lead actors, their performances were amazing, eddie redmayne was just so chilling and i really think he could be nominated for an oscar.

    Jessica chastain is great as well and she has delivered a really good perfomance.

    So for me this movie is a really good watch, it isnt must watch and i wouldn't say its a masterpiece But still a very well made movie.

    So for me 8/10.
