The Boys In The Boat - FILM REVIEW

3 and a half Stars! Nell Minow, rogerebert.com

"When people say “they don’t make movies like that anymore,” this is the kind of movie they’re talking about. “The Boys in the Boat,” based on Daniel James Brown's acclaimed book, is the true story of the University of Washington rowing team that won a gold medal in the Berlin Summer Olympics of 1936. Conventionally old fashioned, the film may not surprise you, but it will satisfy you. Director George Clooney understands the strength of this classic underdog story, and he knows how to tell it, with gorgeous visuals and heartfelt performances."
