Unbroken Movie Reviews :
I
was very disappointed in what should have been, hands down, an Oscar
contender. I cannot recommend this movie to anyone because the direction
absolutely ruined this film, which misses the point of the book
altogether. Laura Hildebrand's wonderful book immediately reaches the
reader's heart as she connects Louie Zamperini's life story of growing
up from a kid headed towards a life of crime to becoming a man who not
only survived the most unbelievable odds but also how the human spirit
can sustain anything, if wanted. Never during the two + hours does the
viewer get to know the character, or his friends, family and
comrades-in-arms. Maybe Ms. Jolie should have spent more time reading
the book and trying to understand the emotional connect the book had
with its readers than planning all her promotional interviews and short
documentaries which focused only on her and how fortunate she was to
have been chosen to direct the film. It's not about you, Angelina, it
was about a remarkable life and humanity, and you missed it all.
