So far, not thrilled with this weekend’s movies.

Wow- what a ham-fisted hagiography of a film. Everything is so broadly telegraphed that you could guess the end from the opening scenes. One of those movies where the costumes look like they came from a Broadway production: you can tell what the represent, but even the people living in poverty and filth look like they dry-clean their clothes, then reapply clean dirt in the morning.

A by the numbers documentary that manages to suck most of the life out of what should be a compelling and inspiring story.
