Typical Hollywood Over the Top Film

Rating: 4/10 (8 January 2017)

I just saw "Hidden Figures" and when I got home I read the reviews on IMDb of the film. After reading some I decided that I have to add an honest review, as the I question the other reviewers credibility.
This is NOT a great film, it is mediocre at best and sometimes it is so over the top that it is corny.
Hollywood is obsessed with the oppressed black narrative and it really shows in this film. It also seems that Kevin Costner plans on finishing his career preaching the same narrative to all of white America, as if white America doesn't already understand the history.
I did appreciate the way the film portrayed black female kindness and strength. I have been very close to some black females and have great respect for their kindness and decency.
The history lesson of the American space program and the important role that black females played in it is interesting. But be prepared for 2-hours of "all white people are bad, except Kevin Costner".
The acting was good, but the film will not receive any Oscars, nor should it.
