Unrealized potential
PostedNovember 8, 2009

I had such high expectations for this movie; however, a spotty, disconnected and over edited storyline made it difficult to enjoy. There was enormous potential to go deeper with the characters and yet it didn't . . . which was almost agonizing.
The bright spots for me were: 1) Ewan McGregor in a heartbreaking portrayal of Gene Vidal, 2) the earnest portrayals of the Navy radio men on Howland Island, and 3) the gorgeous planes.
Maybe this is one of those stories best told in two parts in order to fully capture the amazing achievements and the intriguing personal life of Amelia Earhart? Don’t know . . . but this muddled movie glazed over both and left me disappointed.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
