Netflix Fans Sound the Alarm: Must-See ‘Dark Waters’ Film Based on Real Events

Netflix viewers are insisting that other film fans watch a 2019 movie that’s recently landed on the streaming platform.

Making it even better, the film is based on a true story – which usually means that you’re onto a winner.

Boasting an all-star cast, Anne Hathaway and Mark Ruffalo star as the film’s leads, with Tom Robbins and Bill Camp also featuring.

Titled Dark Waters, the critically acclaimed film is based on the true story of Robert Bilott, an American lawyer [portrayed by Marvel star Ruffalo] who sued DuPont for decades for contaminating drinking water with the chemical PFOA.

The movie’s synopsis reads: “A corporate defense attorney takes on an environmental lawsuit against a chemical company that exposes a lengthy history of pollution.”

While the film is five years old, it has only just been added to Netflix this month – and subscribers have been raving about the thriller ever since.

Taking to Facebook page Netflix Bangers, one person described it as a ‘good one’.

People have also been raving about the Dark Waters on X of late.

DARK WATERS is on Netflix and I highly recommend it to basically everyone,” said another.

A different person raved: “Dark Waters just came out on Netflix with Mark Ruffalo and Anne Hathaway and this movie is a movie everyone needs to watch.”

Meanwhile, one fan hailed Ruffalo’s performance in the movie as ‘fantastic’.
