Directed by Oliver Stone who tends to go off on screwy tangents in his films. You can't trust anything he says. Not worth my time to research its truths and made up stuff.

But after hearing that Snowden was a trailer for so long, I though it was interesting to see another point of view.

The movie takes some artistic license with the narrative but the substance remains the same.
Both were good and worth my time.

That was a pretty haunting scene when they were watching the Middle-Eastern businessman's daughter getting undressed.
