Review of Brooklyn (2015) by Brianad9 — 13 Jan 2016
Brooklyn is a beautiful little film, with plenty of romance, humor, sorrow, and a sense of adventure. Saoirse Ronan gives a wonderful performance as Eilis, who comes to New York from Ireland in the '50s.
The supporting cast is also excellent, all the characters felt real. While the film does seem to take a little while to get going (at least it did for me), once it does it really sucks you in. I didn't have any expectations going into it, but I was satisfied with what I got, and I would definitely recommend giving Brooklyn a view.
Every aspect of the film was very well-done, but Saoirse is absolutely the best part of it all, giving one of the best performances I've seen all year.
