Admiral
Very Good 17 Points 2015

The story of Michiel de Ruyter, a famous Dutch admiral, who led the country through the Anglo-Dutch wars of the 17th century. This subtitled water-borne marvel is plenty of fun to watch for obscure history buffs and fans of nautical history. The wars were complex affairs, that drew in France, G…

A Royal Affair
Really Great 83 Points 2012

A Royal Affair is truly regal, with a King, his Queen, their courtiers, grand councils and balls in castles.

  • Infidelity so grand – so right – it was ultimately forgiven by the cuckold King of Denmark.

55 Steps
Very Good 17 Points 2017

Helena Bonham Carter and Hillary Swank make a great pairing in this inspiring tale of Eleanor Riese and her fight for mental patients rights. But the story isn’t just about that; it is about her unique personality and the enduring friendships she formed. Good stuff.

42
Very Good 17 Points 2013

42 gives us a part of baseball history that fans and non-fans alike should see. As much as it is a decent baseball story, it is an even better story about American history. This glimpse into how Jackie Robinson made his way from a Negro league to the Brooklyn Dodgers was more complex than a simpl…

23 Blast
Good 17 Points 2014

Not quite in the same class as ‘Remember the Titans’ or ‘Blind Side’, but 23 Blast has all the hallmarks of a great come-from-behind sports story. This story about Kentucky high school football star Travis Freeman is especially inspiring once you learn about Travis’ fate of blindness and his com…
