Glorious Disappointment

Rating: 6/10 (10 July 2017)

This movie represents everything I dislike about translating true stories into movies.
Glorious performance from actors, director, the music and costume department, and pretty much everyone else. But there is only so much to accomplish if the real life story is disappointing, to say the least.
While we have every element for a great movie, even such things as interesting characters or great focus on social themes and human nature, still the final product crumbles just because the story has no real ending, no epiphany, no closure.
Too long, too slow, builds to nothing, just some text at the end.
Just like this review.
