Review of The Grapes of Wrath (1940) by Peter F — 30 Sep 2014

It's ok it's ok, we'll take those.

The grapes of wrath movie missed some important moments and scenes. I was very disappointed and shocked at the end of the movie. It felt unfinished and disappointing. I mostly say this because I read the book and the ending missed three very important scenes that happened in the book. The movie portrayed the themes and antagonist of the book nicely. Although, during the climax, I thought disappointed by the actors' performances. Very poor acting in the most important scene, it didn't feel natural but felt forced and rushed. For this to be such an old movie, I thought that the crew did a good job with lighting and sound. I think better Music could've been play during the climax. There were times when the music was corny, but then again I'm comparing it to the quality of the music we having movies today. The movie have more pros and cons but it still doesn't get the Ant John stamp of approval.
