Bombshell Movie Review: Even Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman, and Margot Robbie can’t make this story truly explosive

The main issue with Bombshell is a certain lack of perception, a reticence to truly examine a culture that was practically guaranteed to implode one way or another. To the film’s credit, it does dive into the story of the women who helped bring down powerful men at Fox News, as well as its atmosphere of harassment, doing an admirable job of not just depicting what happened, but introducing us to this world and the rules that govern it.
