Meet the Patels (2014)
One of the most enjoyable films ever....
You do not have an Indian background to thoroughly enjoy this hilarious, heart-felt, & engaging documentary of a beautiful family who truly respect and love one another. I was so sorry to see the film end.
I was lucky to see this film through San Jose's Cinema Club led by Tim Sika, & I highly recommend to people of all ages, backgrounds, religions, & cultures. You will actually feel renewed after viewing it!
The characters are so real & engaging; of course, this is because they are a real family..with the same wishes and desires for their children's happiness that we all feel for our own children. There is surprising beautiful animation sprinkled throughout the film which enhanced it for me.
I wish that they would do a sequel.
Unbroken (2014)
Excellent & Beautifully Told True Story!
You may find this review somewhat surprising, especially with all the hype that has been afforded "American Snipe, " but I definitely enjoyed "Unbroken" so much more & felt that "American Sniper" was just a well told war story & well acted, but without anything new. I watched "American Sniper" and immediately afterwords, "Unbroken," & was so much more moved by "Unbroken." I found this true story even more compelling and meaningful. I do enjoy the Coen Brothers films, & the screenplay they wrote was tight without unwanted over-the-top drama. Bravo to Angelina Jolie on an excellent directorial debut. I look forward to her next film!
