Operation Finale Movie Review

I didn't hear much about Operation Finale, but I'm glad that I saw it!

Operation Finale is based on the true story about the Israelis getting the Nazi Adolf Eichmann, in Argentina.

This is one of those powerful films, and I'm somewhat surprised that this didn't come out during December, but then again we usually get one WWII type of film in the summer.

All of the actors did a fine job. I found their performances to be believable, and I applaud them for that. I don't think there was a single bad performance in the film.

The only down side to the movie that I could think of, is that it could have and should have been a little more intense than it was. Maybe they could have changed the music a little to make Operation Finale a little more dramatic. Besides that I didn't really have any problems with the film as a whole. We get to know some of the characters a bit, but not to well. However we do get some of their backstories.

If you're into WWII history, I would recommend seeing this film at least once. Operation Finale was overall enjoyable, and brought forth an interesting operation in history to the limelight, if only for a moment.

final score: 3.5/5

Coda Movie Review This Deserved Best Picture So, I just got back from seeing Coda, and it was amazing! This was the second attempt to see this film as the first time, someone booked the entire theater for a private screening. I'm going to take from a summary from IMDB to summarize the plot: " As a CODA (Child of Deaf Adults) Ruby is the only hearing person in her deaf family. When the family's fishing business is threatened, Ruby finds herself torn between pursuing her passion at Berklee College of Music and her fear of abandoning her parents." The acting was phenomenal, the cinematography was beautiful, and the story was human. The way this film is crafted is nothing short but excellent. I will not that not everything is 100% accurate, but for narrative reasons, I understand the choices they made. The actors have amazing chemistry together. Everything feels natural between them and they all bring their characters to life. No per...
