Chernobyl (2019)
10/10
Very Powerful!
9 June 2019
Wow! The only review I can give is for you to watch it and feel the raw emotions... this is unbelievable piece of screenplay.

The entire 5 series should be converted into a movie and circulated in cinemas for people to watch. Yep they would sit in for the entire 5 hrs length.

A flop
13 June 2013
I kept on waiting for a 'big moment' in the 'documentary' but I couldn't find it... watched all the way to the end and I was left confused. A big flop, D-.

It's really an uncoordinated jungle of spaghetti which tries too hard in vain to show the 'human' side of Beyoncé.

She could have tried to inject some life into it by soliciting interview opinions of her Destine Child friends; co-workers and those around her. It could have injected some life into it and pretended to be independent and unbiased, or rather 'real'. I agree with many reviewers that she has failed lamentably to win new fans with this film. At least she has tried to show her work ethics; that she works hard at what she does hence the 4 stars above.

The Help (2011)
10/10
Powerful movie
3 September 2011
Look folks, I'm not the one to go watch a movie and then come and write a review. This is very rare, in fact this is the first time. First of all, I'm a black middle-aged male living in Australia. I'm not into that black-white-red-yellow affirmative action, divide or whatever you call it and I have not experienced that American slavery or racism history except seeing it presented one-sided or biased on TV.

Now having proclaimed my neutrality above, I will tell you this: this is one powerful movie that will sure touch and move you in one way or another whatever your political lining. The casting, directing and acting are top-of-the-shelf superb A+++. When my wife first told me about it, I said OK whatever. Man was I wrong! I cried and laughed at the same throughout the movie, and I'm a dude and where I come from men are not supposed to show their soft side. All I can say is go see the movie and it will be worth it.
