Review of 42 (2013) by Dan M — 28 Apr 2017
Reminds me a bit of that movie Glory Road, another sports movie about how black athletes had to deal with rampant racism everywhere they went back in those days. Of course this took place before that, and as we all know Jackie Robinson is a legend.
Acting was great, a little too on the nose for the racists which must be uncomfortable as hell to portray. Harrison Ford plays a loveable old geezer that's on Robinson's side and does a good job at it too.
Bozeman was awesome in the lead as Robinson. Worth a watch I'd say, even though it is baseball, this movie is more than just about the sport though.
