Le parole che voglio dirti

This movie is based on a true story, a memoir & a journal. Denzel Washington really directed the film beautifully. What a beautiful love story. Both main casts did a wonderful job.

This is a good story and should have made for a poignant film and for the first 20 minutes I thought it would. It's just a shame the female lead rather than gain empathy actually got annoying.

Micheal B Jordan is excellent as ever but is let down a bit by the film. It's 20 to 30 minutes too long and there was no need for some of the not so subtle political view points.

Shame after the Great start.

I thought the movie is like a journal itself for Jordan, and I was like wow this is a lil bit too rated R for Jordan.

A movie remembering the real life 1st Sargent, told mostly through the point of view of the wife.

Honestly the first 45 minutes I was pretty intrigued. It's slow, but I still liked the relationship because of the chemistry between the two leads. However, over time I could not wait for the movie to end. It's so dang dragged out. There wasn't that much to this story in the first place. The ending scene was pretty good but I was just mostly glad it's over.

Overall, glad I didn't watch this during Christmas because it would have been a boring one. 4.5-5/10.

Good job Denzel It was slow but kept my attention. It's not about the quality of the movie but the subject. It was a true story. It was someone's life, not just a movie. Too many men grow up without direction. This man knew how to be a Father.

A Journal for Jordan (2021) is a movie my wife and family saw in theatres on Christmas Day. The storyline follows a single mother raising a young man and trying to explain his past, her relationship with his father and why circumstances are the way they are. As the young man faces various struggles in life, she reads him segments of a journal his father left him before passing away on how and why he has to handle various circumstances in life.

This movie is directed by Denzel Washington (Antwone Fisher) and stars Michael B. Jordan (Creed), Chanté Adams (Bad Hair), Robert Wisdom (Face/Off), Tamara Tunie (Flight) and David Wilson Barnes (Capote).

The storyline for this is very well written and executed. The elements of the storyline and how they are presented while jumping around "present day" events are well done. The lessons learned by the characters and how that plays into the final conclusion is excellent. The cast delivers remarkable performances and the movie has many tear jerking moments and elements.

Overall this is a very well done picture with numerous important life lessons and elements. I would score this a strong 8/10 and strongly recommend it.
