Suffragette (2015)
Fails to engage
27 December 2015
Warning: Spoilers
I feel the main issue with this movie is the script. It lacks depth, the characters are flat, it just failed to engage me. The actors did a good job but whats not in the script is not in the script. Meaning I feel they did their best but where not able to overcome the dullness of the script and the characters in it. The characters felt very self righteous to me, I did not feel heart. I did not feel they had real passion for the cause.

The subject you'd think is an engaging one and has potential but it did not deliver. I kept waiting for the movie to grab me somehow, it never did.

I also thought the scenery was lacking. I understand it was meant to look depressing but I felt it was more then depressing. It lacked, just like the characters did, a certain depth, a certain soul.

I don't think its a bad movie. I have certainly seen worse. But I do not recommend it.
