It's the kind of movie where you compliment the performances and then trail off because there's nothing much left to say that won't make you sound like a jerk. Thus said, Hidden Figures is a lackluster of a film the you'l find yourself pinching yourself to stay awake. Of all the Oscar nominees for Best Picture, this is the one I couldn't see why it was nominated. I feel like Martin Scorcese's "Silence" was cheated out of so many awards by movies like this. Curious to see what you guys think.
2/10

I think it was nominated to fill a racial quota so Hollywood wouldn't face backlash. That's the problem now. Anytime a black actor or film about black people is nominated, I tend to stay away from it. Every year now, there is a 'black' film whose sole purpose is to show black people overcoming impossible odds.

Well, I liked the movie but it was based on real life so there wasn't really anywhere to go except that these ladies were really good at their jobs and it's a story that hadn't really been told until now.
I enjoyed it.
8/10

7/10. About as good as these "based on historical facts" movies get. Points off for some historical inaccuracies, but plus points for making John Glenn's return to earth suspenseful even though we known he made it safely for over 50 years!

7/10. I really liked it in theaters but rewatching it, I couldn't help notice it had this made-for-tv direction. Not like lifetime movie but like a really expensive HBO movie.
