Review of Brooklyn (2015) by Moviemitch96 — 25 Nov 2015

I know I'm gonna be in the minority when I say this, but I just liked this film and really enjoyed it and didn't love it like most did. To me it was just a simple little film with a good heart and an undeniably charming performance from Saoirse Ronan that's deservedly bound for an best actress Academy Award nod.

Overall, the film felt a little too simple for my liking and I found it to be rather predictable and cliche, especially towards the end with the whole "torn between two lovers and two homes" situation.

I also found it to be a bit underwhelming given the rave reviews (that 99% on Rotten Tomatoes is ridiculously too high!) But that didn't stop me from enjoying it and making it a worthwhile but ultimately forgettable film to watch.
