I liked it a lot as well. The decision to go with the actual footage of McCarthy is really effective, definitely more so than casting someone to play him would have been. It corresponds to what Murrow says in the script about how they're just going to stick to McCarthy's own words, in order to let him tie his own noose.

The one thing that didn't quite work for me was how the subplot involving Downey and Clarkson was integrated into the story. I like both of those actors, so it works fine in that you have two compelling performers getting to do some scenes together, but I didn't really see what it had to do with what the rest of the movie was about.
