Review of Collateral Beauty (2016) by Tammy A — 28 Jul 2017

I think sometimes, reviewers are too smart for their own good and need to take a break from movie watching and go do something else for a bit. This movie has been dissected ENTIRELY too much. Too much thought went into these reviews.

It's a movie. Sometimes they are very real, sometimes they aren't so much. It's a MOVIE. Just watch it for the message. Not the plot of how right or wrong it is presented. It's not hard to figure out.

Don't over think it. It's a good movie. I enjoyed it. It was wonderfully sad. It had things to take away, simple as those thoughts may be. But it wasn't a bomb or a disaster. I felt like will smith and these other actors.

..simply made a movie. A simple movie with no complexity. And that's ok to do. Not every movie needs to be a smash hit, to be good. Not every actor is in it for the award or accolades. It's just a movie.

But it IS a good movie. Had no special meaning for me. A few thoughtful moments. Some take aways. Nothing profound...but not a waste of my time.????
