Review of North Country (2005) by Lucinda W — 13 Sep 2009
*** (out of four).
Well acted and well meaning drama that at times sinks below its good intentions.
Charlize Theron is very good as a woman who moves back to her Minnesota town. Needing some money she gets a job working at the local iron mine where she is constantly harassed by the men.
Decent enough, but other than Theron, many of the roles, especially the male charatcters are cliched stereotypes, and the melodrama gets pretty thick with the poorly execited climax.
