meow! Review the movie not the actress

Rating: 9/10 (4 August 2015)

Wow, never seen so many reviews out to attack the director. My guess is with the amount of female negative reviews, it is due to jealousy. I am not a big fan of Jolie's acting career but can only give her thumbs up on a very enjoyable well directed movie. My only thought after seeing the short about the "real" Louis is that another movie could have been made about the rest of his life. What a remarkable person. As far as the movie, it was well done in almost every way with flashbacks bringing us up to date while we watch the incredible events take place. It has the classic good guy and bad guy conflict in gritty detail with a satisfying finish. I have to admit I didn't get emotionally committed until watching the above mentioned short especially the comment by Jolie that she showed him the movie in his hospital bed shortly before his death. What a gift to him.
