This one seemed to have Pushed all the Right Buttons. Universally Acclaimed, Winner of the Best Picture Oscar, and while not the most Overrated Movie of all time, or even the Worst Movie to Win Best Picture Honors, it is still a Mediocre Movie, and with all of that Emotional Attachment to the Subject Matter is Emotionally Deflated occasionally.

It is Relentless in its Black and White Portrayal of Good Guys and Bad Guys. The Beginning and the Ending are Fine and Applaud Worthy, but the Middle is so Repetitive and Repulsive that the constant Beating of the same Drum is Deafening.

The Acting is Good and the Cinematography Compelling but the Direction is Sophomoric and at times Intellectually Shallow.

A Film like this should definitely be made for Every Generation so its Historical Importance is Never Outside of Memory.

But to Call this Great Filmmaking or Engaging Cinema is to Lose Touch with the Discerning Faculties and is a Surrender to a Guilt Complex and a need for Empathetic Folks to display Their Feelings and Frustrations about the Failings of the Human Species.

Definitely Worth a Watch for Low Information Viewers and the Historically Deprived, Youngsters and Truth Seekers.
