Review: I honestly think this film is overrated. Dont get me wrong. Fantastic acting. Definitely I think Chiwetel and Michael Fassbender are Oscar worthy. Would be surprised to not see them nominated. I even really enjoyed Paul Danos small part in the film. Lupito was also good, but I wasnt as wowed with her as I was with the others. Plus, I think Brad Pitt was the worst of the bunch. Ive liked him in other movies, but he was the weak link here and felt out of place.I also didnt care much for Steve McQueens directing choice. Like, he would use these really long shots of Chitwetels face or example. Not doing anything but breathing. Some people might like that artsy stuff...but I just wanted to get on with the program already. Also the film just feels really long. Its only around 2 hours and 10 min long. But it felt like 3. And I realize that slavery was absolutely brutal but I just personally felt like the film was trying to much to make you cry and grab you by the heart. And I just didnt feel that way. And Im not some robot. I cry a lot at movies. Last thing I didnt like, aging Solomon (Chiwetel). They add some grey to his hair to signify that 12 years had past. But did absolutely nothing else. He still looked the same. Plus, I dont even feel like the movie adequately showed that 12 years had gone by (except for the title, and at the end of the movie, his kids are grown up). I felt like there was no sense of time in the movie. It seemed like the events only took place over a year. None of the other characters aged either.But those were my main problems with it. Otherwise, its a pretty decent flick and should be checked out at least for the performances.
