Am I Missing Something?
It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
