Hidden Figures review

Posted : 6 years, 12 months ago on 3 May 2017 08:50 (A review of Hidden Figures)

Some notes before the movie:
- I'm Estonian
- I'm a woman
- I'm young (didn't seen to the space era)
YES:
*The main cast is magnificent - as being her music fan I was suprised to see Monae acting and she gave pretty solid performance.
*The feeling of the era is realistic and fun - blue sky blue skirt clothes, love old american cars
NO:
*The soundtrack - boring classical tunes vs Pharrell Williams.
*The writing - every scene is a cliche. Example: She walks in a room full of white men, as she enters they became quiet, she sits.
*Sheldon Cooper - as being the fan of "The Big Bang Theory" I find myself extremely hard to watch heartwarming goofy Mr. Parsons in cold calculating engineer role. I hope he succees to break out the character role, but this was miscasted.

I feel like director take too big bite and theme too big.
