«La mayoría de los estadounidenses no quieren libertad, quieren seguridad». Stone sorprendentemente vivo y divertido con un buen guión. Gordon-Levitt como un distinguido súper talento de TI creíble y simpático, el resto del elenco es agradable (Woodley como su pareja, Ifans como jefe de la CIA y Quinto y Wilkinson interpretando a periodistas). La presentación de un tema controvertido con tensión y al mismo tiempo ligereza (el personaje de Nicolas Cage) es equilibrada desde el punto de vista de la dirección. Las patéticas cosquillas al final son llevaderas, la película sabe lo que quiere decir y lo hace con el corazón, que es lo principal. [Cannes]

Oliver Stone is a very more experienced director, I like his U-Turn and Savages a lot, but after a four-year hiatus he returns with a mediocre film. At first I was more or less very satisfied, I like Joseph Gordon-Levitt a lot, but here I stopped enjoying it after an hour. As soon as the film started to deal with politics it went to shit, at least for me; on the one hand I don't care about it and on the other, I don't care about American politics at all. Finished with a slight suffering, Snowden himself is an interesting personality though.50%

Stone seeks the long-lost relevance of a commentator, in vain. Snowden's great motto is that, unlike his recent films, he has no annoying mannerist hallmark and falls of quite nicely. Oliver even forced the greatest living Gordon-Levitt impersonator to act, which is a solid accomplishment. Unfortunately, the content of the testimony itself, compared to what the Oscar-winning documentary Citizenfour offered, is more of a clear introduction to the issue, which underscores Stone's well-known critical-patriotic stance on contemporary US democracy. Something provocative is missing, something that would burn into the retina. A tame personal level will not replace it. Snowden passes by pleasantly and finally smiles with uncontrollable pathos. It’s no mess, but also no subversion... [70%]

The director Oliver Stone really shines through the movie. You don’t really buy all the dialogues, but the picking on America is apparent in almost every scene. The wide range of actors backing him is really interesting, so a number of interesting faces appears throughout the movie. Anyway, the most important thing here is Snowden and Joseph Gordon-Lewitt portrayed him fantastically. However, when it comes to the screenplay, it is really boring. The film wants to say something more, but in the end leaves us with what we already know from the media. And whether you agree with Snowden or not really doesn’t matter. The essential is what happened on the Internet since the affair and it only confirmed the myths and theories that have been and still are revolving around the Internet.

Oliver Stone remains just as critical, slightly caustic and interesting. I'm a little worried that this patriot won't be doing anything more than dissecting American’s biting problems, and that's a bit of a shame (the glorious and "differently" conceived Alexander). On the other hand, Snowden is an interesting subject, decently handled and easy to grasp for an ordinary viewer unfamiliar with the case – even a complete illiterate can understand what is happening in the film and what is related to what. For die-hard political scientists and would-be pundits, however, it may not be the right fit, It's not pure documentary style, they wanted it to be good to go to the cinema and the purpose is fulfilled.
