Review of 12 Years a Slave (2013) by Craig M — 09 Feb 2015
It's very difficult to watch - and say you liked - such a painfully gratuitous movie, in particular if the movie is about slavery, but McQueen has a fresh eye. The acting, all around, is top notch.
I think the script is where things faltered a bit, as it does tend to be a little one-note throughout. The score is phenomenal.
