Movie Reviews of Norma Jean and Marilyn

Movie Review: exxagerated and inaccurate
Summary: 3 Stars

this movie was not made to put marilyn's name highabove, it was made to tarnish the image we all have of her; I mean, of course she wasn't perfect , but Does anybody think that marilyn would have achieved as much as she did, if she was just a dumb junkie.
she was more than that; she was ambitious and intelligent enough to succeed in hollywood, in an era ruled by men.

Movie Review: What I learned about Marilyn
Summary: 3 Stars

I heard about this movie from a friend a couple years ago and thought I would buy it since it was a little more than renting it. I learned a lot Marilyn/Norma Jean from this movie. Not sure the accuracy, but was still very interesting to watch.

Movie Review: Eh.
Summary: 3 Stars

It wasn't a great film, but it wasn't horrible either. If you're a Monroe fan, it's something you want in your collection - Marilyn as a person who has multiple personality disorder explains a heck of a lot.

Movie Review: Entertaining to a point, but totally inaccurate.
Summary: 2 Stars

The HBO movie is entertaining to a point. I just couldn't get through the inaccuracies. I found this movie referenced under documentary of Marilyn Monroe's life, but it is not a documentary of her life. This is just a movie with some good acting, and a lot of false references.
For instance, the movie does not show Marilyn when she was happy at all (understanding she had a rough childhood).
The way they showed her life ending was not at all how it happened. For example, how she was found dead and who saw her the last day of her life.
It does not show her true relationship with Joe DiMaggio, or how before her death they were friendly again.
It portrays her as a slut willing to do anything to get to the top which is wrong. If you read any book about Marilyn, writen by anyone who was close to her in her adult life, will describe her as a completely different person than she was played as in this so called documentary.

Movie Review: Pure entertainment.
Summary: 2 Stars

Anyone wanting to know anything about Marilyn Monroe's life, would steer clear of this movie. Not only does it depict Marilyn in a negative light, but the facts are just all wrong. If you're watching just for pure entertainment, then you will enjoy this.
