Review of Secretariat (2010) by Nathan H — 20 May 2012

Never has a true story felt so fake. The performances and directing were fine, but they could not save this turkey of a script. The characters talk in movie lines rather than in realistic dialogue, false tension springs out of nowhere and dissipates just as quickly, and I refuse to believe everyone involved with Secretariat was some how in need of redemption.

There is an interesting story here, but the way it was told did not do it justice.
