"It's just so boring and doesn't leave an impact at all."

An average movie

“Even though Hilary Swank managed to snatch 2 oscars which she both deserved, she didn't do anything else much impressive. With this flick which she produced, she picked a better project, a high-profile biographical drama but it was still not really a success. Swank shouldn't be blamed though as she gave a very good performance. Furthermore, the whole thing looked pretty good and gave a good feeling of the time period. Still, it was not really satisfying though. I don't know, but when Mira Nair who's a fine director makes movies about Indian people or Indian immigrants ('Salaam Bombay!', 'Monsoon Wedding', 'The namesake'), the end result is pretty amazing but when she deals with another culture ('Vanity Fair' and this movie), the end result is rather disappointing.

“Ok well basically all I learned from this movie was that Amelia Earhart was a slut and a really boring person( obviously she's not but that's what the movie portrays her as). The movie does little with its raw material and never really explores Amelia like what got her interested in flying or what was her motivation, the only good part that was somewhat interesting was her final flight. Good luck getting to the end though without falling asleep thanks to its slow pacing, boring storytelling, not so great acting, and bland dialogue. If you are really eager to see this movie spare yourself the torture and skip to the last 15-20 minutes of the movie, that's the only remotely interesting part of the movie which is her final flight trying to fly across the world.” read more
