Well done submitted by LVDS on July 24, 2017, 2:21pm Meryl is young and exceptional in these roles.

Really? Who cares if Streep is young or old? what a ridiculous review of a famous movie... submitted by Tassos on April 11, 2021, 8:32pm THe movie is not easy to watch or enjoy. Bored to death, really. Irons and Streep are wasted. WHat is the effing POINT of this stupid flick which seemed to get so much attention when it came out? I am still on scene 6 out of 16 and stopped it to go watch the silly Simpsons. Will get back to it and probably fast forward it to its miserable end in 3 minutes.
