It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
