Review of McFarland, USA (2015) by Thegodfatherson — 20 Feb 2015
There is almost no effort to create an uplifting drama here. The premise, which is solid, doesn't blend well with what Director Niki Caro, wants to achieve. There is the good performance by Kevin Costner and the brilliant cinematography that you get to see, also great shots of farmlands.
But all this doesn't matters if the movie isnt good. This is a movie that clearly wants to be Field Of Dreams, but doesn't have the balls to be it. There are painfully injected jokes and tear jerking moments included for attention.
But this movie really looks good and has solid performances, but really it is turd, polished and scamming you for a movie that is uplifting.
