brilliant July 28, 2010 Mr. Pj Williams (cardiff uk) a masterful portrayal of the characters by all actors involved. and engaging plot and you get to learn something about a little known piece of American history ( I am welsh so it was to me) and its current issues with the subject. loved it.
A Bitter/Sweet Biopic June 6, 2010 Mr. S. Briggs (Buckinghamshire) Sean Penn plays the part of Harvey Milk, battling for Gay Rights he became the Supervisor for San Francisco (which is very similar to a Town Mayor). The only real thing that Milk was aiming for was a just society where LGBT (lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual & Transgendered) people had equal rights.
It seems wrong to write so little but the main message I want to get across is watch it! I had never heard of Harvey Milk until this but he was a truly inspirational man who changed the lives of so many. It is a film really worth watching.
Don't Miss This Film April 21, 2010 Ms. C. Downes (Huyton, Liverpool United Kingdom) I loved this film - Sean Penn as always is excellent. So good I have already watched it twice.
Milk March 13, 2010 TheGerbilTamer (London) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Apart from the Oscar buzz surrounding this film I wasn't really aware of the life and career of Harvey Milk prior to watching this film. It's an incredibly well-made biopic by indie director Gus Van Sant and Sean Penn's central performance certainly was worthy of the Oscar he won. The thing which really stood out for me was the way in which Van Sant made the film look as though it was actually taken from the 1970s as it had a convincing grainy quality and faded colour worthy of the decade.
As well as charting Milk's rise to power and his eventual assassination it also questions the nature of prejudice in the US. It's a film which will make you think deeply about a whole range of issues. A great film, brilliantly acted by all of the cast members and well worth a watch.
Sad, moving and uplifting March 5, 2010 William Cohen (London) I saw the documentary film of the story of Harvey Milk, so I was familiar with all the details. This may have taken away some of the impact. It's poignant and painful tale. Since my gripe against the Conservative Party is that they never want to recruit new members, I was impressed by Harvey's panache. He's my idea of a perfect politician, grounded in the community. Though I can see how he got caught by the dark side of it, too (broken relationships, no money, workaholism).
Sean Penn is brilliant. The best tribute you can make to true revolutionary.
