A+ movie in my book. Incredible cast led by Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks. Brilliant writing and a crazy true story that hits so many important issues ​​​​​​​​​

I loved this movie. Watched it in high school when it first came out on an AP Gov field trip

8/10

As the film brings back a bit of faith towards humanity, you start to wonder if it’s oversimplifying the matter. While it is, indeed, a complicated issue, the point of the film is just that. Sometimes it’s not that complicated. Sometimes we simply need to ask ourselves what is the right thing to do and just do it.
While being an idealist, this film does not shy away from the fact that doing what’s right often requires sacrifice. My favorite scene was when Antoinette reminds Ben what Katherine is risking. What a woman would be up against. It is not an easy road, and I’m glad the film gives it’s spotlight to these issues that are just as important and would easily be put to the sideline in a film like this.
