Review of My Week with Marilyn (2011) by Scott C — 23 Sep 2012
Overrated. Not much of dramatic significance happens in this sappy flick. Also, Michelle Williams, while a very attractive woman, just does not the same raw sex appeal as Marilyn Monroe. She's very cute (in other movies) but there are countless other actresses that could portray the raw sex of Marilyn.
If they had nailed this, the film would have made so much more sense. The film's drama revolves around every man in the audience wanting to bed her. Michelle Williams just doesn't pull off the Marilyn draw.
God that sounds shallow, but it just doesn't work because of it.
