When Critics Get It Spectacularly Wrong

Rating: 9/10 (5 October 2014)

What I will write is not a review of the film but rather, my feelings about it.
I think that a critic's judgment, although in most cases accurate, is often clouded by ego and limited appreciation towards the human side of the movie and more towards the aesthetic value of it and the notions of motion picture "art" and "science". So what if it's a modern version of Driving Miss Daisy? That's not the point of the movie. When one lets go of all these distractions and the film works it's magic, the human feeling it exerts on the viewer is incredible. Also, I didn't get the nonsense about the "racial stereotypes". In their shallow selves, the critics, especially the American ones, paid too much attention to these alleged signals of race stereotypes. I, for one, didn't think once about it and I was shocked to read that the movie contained racial stereotypes (I like to read reviews after watching a movie to avoid being influenced) Furthermore the instances where the film tackles cultural differences (not the plot of the movie), albeit unfortunately, are not necessarily stereotypes but a reality for many people of different cultures and ethnicity; even in America, as much as American critics hate to admit it.
So therefore if you haven't seen this movie yet, let go and immerse yourself in a touching and very human experience and don't be prejudiced about it and you will agree that this is a case where critics get it spectacularly wrong.
