Green Book

I was conflicted about this movie, since I've read that the family of the person this is based on wasn't too pleased. That made me want to give it a low rating, but on the other hand, I truly enjoyed the film. In the end, I decided to rate it for its inherent merits, without taking into account the real story it's supposedly based on.

It's a "Buddy film" that's worth watching. Both the main characters have extreme personalities that created a dynamic onscreen pairing that's very entertaining.

An interesting, though safe, road trip movie that doesn't repeat itself too much. The two leads carry the movie, with great charisma and believable in their delivery. The writing, however, was not so believable.

This film was really fascinating in terms of lots of criterias. I personally enjoyed in a huge way while I was watching every part of it. Acting was pretty good when we focus on the leading role and supporting role. Dramatical scenes were reflected so realistically that I could feel those moments in myself. Costume may be the most outstanding feature of this one. In each scene, outfits of both characters were different and perfect. Also, music is inevitable for assesment. It was enthusiastic.

Satirical yet human.

Interesting, funny, and feel-good. The movie does not take the matter too seriously, which may be why most people could enjoy the movie with ease.

very good. Viggo, amazing as always.

It's been criticized for being too lighthearted about a true story of racism, but I think it's important for people to be able to experience difficult topics without it always being a dirge or sermon.

A great movie. Exceeded my expectations.
