Philomena - Review

One of the most quiet, yet surprising films of 2013 met my expectations at ease.  "Philomena" revolves around a woman named, Philomena, who works with an author to find her son who she was forced to give up, 50 years previous.  The movie's hype and story really were enthusing to watch as the film progressed very well.  An hour and a half was perfect for this type of movie and during its duration, there were plenty of shockers in it.  Some parts were very remarkable because you were in shock that some of this happened in reality.  The acting of Judi Dench who played Philomena was unbelievably done well, she was great to watch.  At her age, she can still give such a great performance.  Some parts of the film appeared to be just weird to happen by coincidence or chance, which I didn't really find amusing about the movie.  Overall, this is a fast-paced film that does keep your attention span and I do recommend that it be seen.  Judi Dench's performance is worth the price of admission to see.

Rating - 4/5
