Review of The Natural (1984) by Zaidsheikh94 S — 29 Jan 2011

The Natural is a very heartwarming film. It is filled with moments which may be melodramatic but its shown so beautifully that almost anyone would fall for it. The film is inspirational but has a lot of flaws.

First of all, is the early twist the film had. There was no proper justification for such a scene. There are a lot more scenes like this. Also, one entire character (Mercy) seems pointless and hardly plays a 'real' role.

One more thing that dissappointed me was the ending. It seemed partly unconclusional. The movie is predictable but realy doesn't matter. The score is excellent. This movie is easily a worth watch.
