Review of Marshall (2017) by Fedorko — 14 Nov 2017

I was more impressed with Marshall's achievements stated at the end than I was with what he was doing in this movie. Thurgood Marshall deserves a more sweeping and gritty story than this one. This film came off as sterile and formulaic.

I also appreciated the comparison of oppression that Jews and Blacks received in this film, and it can be a good conversation starter. However, it didn't go far enough. Acting was great, direction was serviceable, writing was fine, stakes were good but there was nothing new with the message.

Serviceable film.
