Review: Precious
Tragic drama, carrying the Oprah stamp. It marks a remarkable debut for lead actress Gabourey Sidibe, and the drama is intense. The script, the editing and directing however, doesn’t quite fit. Stylised flashbacks scenes tend to detract the core emotional journey, instead of enhancing it. The script also lacks detail, and the open-endedness didn’t really help the overall score either. Besided showing there are horrible people on this world, it doesn’t do much more than that.6+.
