Disappointing for an Oscar-winner

Rating: 7/10 (13 March 2016)

The story is not new, it's been all over the news for years, at least in Europe, where I live, and I suspect in the US as well. The movie didn't really add anything new in that sense. Acting is good, as is the music, but not exceptional. Visually it's not stunning or especially interesting, no reason to go to the cinema to see it. No real turning points, exceptional dialogues, characters to identify with, emotional scenes. In fact, I found the movie boring at times. Overall a very good film, but really ridiculous it beat The Revenant for best picture. I guess it's a politically correct choice and maybe that suits a lot of people, because I didn't read a lot of complaints or bad reviews about this movie.
