Disappointed
I was so excited before I started the movie. I love Michal Jordon and Danzel Washington being the director I knew it was going to be an epic movie. But I think the movie lost the plot. It's meant to be a romantic movie with some hot scenes like fifty shades grey which I was so not romantic to watch. Too many dramas and little empahis on the real connection of the lead roles. I am the one to cry with touchy movies but I didn't feel anything right till the end. The son takes the centre stage and he is calling the shots. It was not believable..perhaps the movie did not flow properly with too many versions of stories and real life depicted all at once. The soldiers work story was also missing. His character so boring and doesn't have much to say. I am not sure how the memoir was so popular as the movie was a pure disappointment..sorry Denzel.
I hope this is not the end of Denzels movie. I would love to watch more of his work in future. - RosanaBotafogo - 25 August 2022
The ending, very moving, beautiful, beautiful, I cried...
Ahhhh, those diaries that move us... They could mention the first daughter more, I would feel excluded if I were her... :( The movie is cute, but the development is a little slow... War movies are always painful and beautiful , poetic... The ending, very moving, beautiful, beautiful, I cried...
