Knowledge is a weapon of greater use

Rating: 8/10 (12 February 2017)

Going straight to the point what is great about this movie it's the message behind it. When it comes to research, whether it is on physics, maths, science or whatever it is, doesn't matter your gender, your skin color or anything...it matters your knowledge. Nowadays when many of these questions are being raised again, it's great to see a story showing us the opposite and reminding us how important it is education and the discovery of new things, because it's exactly breaking those limits that we are reminded that all of our traditions can be changed... A man had never gone to space until he did, and a woman's place was at home until it started being at an office or whatever it is she wishes. Hidden Figures reminds us of that (we already know, but I guess sometimes people like to forget..). It's based on true facts so it's easy to believe it. It's not ambitious , it doesn't intend to be more then what it was, but still an interesting story, given life with the right amount of drama and a nice soundtrack. It's a good movie, not the best for me, but honestly one of those that everyone should see just for the reminder of how important history and education are. Really good messages being passed through cinema.
