It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The main feature of this movie is the superb acting of all the performers including the richness of the dialogues, Sometimes we feel not to be watching a movie but to be peering through some keyhole or a window at a real family life. The main characters are a couple of strong personalities, the wife a good spouse and the husband a man with a character with positive and negative deeds. All of them are black but besides some spoken words they utter now and then we don't feel much racial tension but not its exclusion either. This movíe is full of life, love, drama, solidariry and friendship. It is much moving and makes you be well with yourself after watching it.

This movie is about relationship questions, the drama lived by a familly in USA in 50's. It has a excellent acting, good script, and characters that you can identify your self or your famillly members.

Troy is a middle-aged garbage collector in 1950s Pittsburgh. Though he gets some enjoyment from life, he is rather bitter about his past, and brings that along into his relationship with his teenage son Cory, with wife Rose doing her best to mediate between them. Life isn't wonderful, but it could get worse... The story in this film is set up in the trailer, but there is a development at the two-thirds point which comes as a surprise, and which drives developments up to the end of the film.Having said that, the plot is secondary: this film is primarily a character study. As the film progresses, we learn how Troy became the man he is: cognisant of his responsibilities as a family man, loving, bullying, kind, controlling, narrow-minded and long-sighted - in short, full of the contradictions which make every one of us a human being.Denzel Washington, directing and starring in the film version of the play which he and co-star Viola Davis played successfully on Broadway, controls this film both behind and in front of the camera. It is a brilliant performance. By the time this film is finished, you love this man and despise him at the same time, attitudes which are shared by his son Cory.But every member of the cast is exemplary. Viola Davis deserved her Oscar nomination, but I greatly like Mykelti Williamson, playing a part which is some distance from his usual range.My sole reservation is that the film is somewhat depressing: despite his positive notes, Troy isn't a very likeable man, and he carries a great deal of not very likeable baggage with him. But that is not the point of this story, it IS this story. And it's a story which is worth seeing for the performances alone.
