Review of Freeheld

Freeheld (2015)
7/10
Intriguing, but detached
20 April 2018
What Freeheld gets right, it got well fitting cast in a roles they handle the most best. Julianne Moore plays a lead as an police officer phasing a devasteting desease. Ellen Page portrates perfectly her younger partner. Both captivate their characters essence and battles well.

Downside is that their dialogue feels forced most of the time. Freeheld captivates the legal battle greatly and gives it time and emotion. But the majority of film it seems that there's no love story what that battle was initially supposed to be built on. Where's the connection that drives eithee of leads?

There of, even though coverage on the story was kept together, I cannot possibly rate Freeheld more than 7 out of 10.
