Movie Reviews of Vera Drake
Movie Review: this movie aborted 2 hours of my life!
Summary: 1 Stars
First let me start on a positive note: acting is superb.
Story? Not much of a story. I could not believe review on the back of DVD--something about dramatic twist at the end. Give me a brake! Half of a movie shows us how her life is really so average, just going around, doing her chores, work and family--boooring! Here and there it shows how she "help" women who are pregnant to abort. At the end she gets arrested and goes to jail. That's a whole story. No dramatic twist, no character development, no historical backdrop that would tell us something about views of the time--this one is a big miss, because movie might have been more interesting if introduced views of politicians, church, judges, average women. If you have 2 hours to spare, you might put your feet up and stare at the blank wall-time better spent.
