جاكي

فيلم جيد!

source: Jackie

Another film that is tedious, slow and un-involving but still featuring a fine lead performance. What makes this film a real endurance test is the grating and intrusive music score, which is quite horrendous. A film that really stands out is one that I can look forward to seeing again - Jackie is not one of those.

Marvelous Natalie, great cinematography and costume design but movie itself bored me to death.

Thumbs down from me with this film,I thought it would be good but I can't think of one thing I liked about it. Natalie Portman tried hard but to me seemed like a wax work model and sounded to me more like Marilyn Monroe than Jacqueline Kennedy? The music was a dirge in fact the whole movie was depressing and frankly I wondered why they made it ? The script , editing and sound )most of the dialogue to me was mumbled ) was unimpressive and more suited to a TV docudrama. Why would this film be up for 3 Academy Awards and a much more deserving film like A United Kingdom be ignored?

This movie has the worst score I've ever heard in my life. Seriously. It reminds me of a military siren. Just awful. I find Natalie Portman's acting and especially her accent extremely unnatural and distracting. Sorry, but I think it's far from an Oscar worthy performance. The entire movie feels extremely uncomfortable to watch. You need to see it yourself to understand what I'm talking about. Plus, it got a strong sense of Oscar bait and I don't bite it: An entire movie revolving around one actor, reenacting events of a historical figure. And for me it fails flat. It feels like a student project. Watching the real "White House broadcast" (which was recreated in the movie), Jackie's accent and way of talking (and general way of behavior throughout the entire broadcast) is extremely unnatural too. Still, I think Portman makes it even MORE unnatural and uncomfortable.

Especially, Natalie Portman. However well disciplined her acting was in this film, no soul.

Israeli-born actress Natalie Portman has come a long way since her amazing performance as a young girl in the thriller "Leon", winning an Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in "Black Swan". In this film, she portrays Jacqueline Kennedy in the days between the assassination and funeral of her husband, US President John F Kennedy, in 1963. It is an exceptional representation, affecting the unusual voice of her subject and communicating the horror and pain of the First Lady's experience and her determination to have the funeral she thought appropriate. This is the first English-language film from Chilean director Pablo Larrain and it is a respectful if, ultimately (and perhaps inevitably), cold work with Mica Levi's discordant score adding to the sense of alienation. As Jackie tells the reporter whose interview is the framing device for the film: "Don't let it be forgot, that for one brief, shining moment there was a Camelot."

Despite technical proficiency and a top-class performance from Natalie Portman, this bio-pic feels relatively aimless and meandering. 'Jackie (2017)' has little story to hold its run-time and is honestly quite a dull experience, one I bored by for a large portion of its run-time. There's merit to the picture but, at the end of the day, I wasn't entertained. 5/10

This movie is overrated. The problem of this film it focuses only on a short period of Jacqueline's life - JFK assassination and funeral arrangements. The film is lacking plot and really does not show anything attractive for audience. It show Jackie as smoking and drinking person, who focuses on funeral arrangements to keep the memory of JFK. That's all.
