KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Aadam (aadamhgafar-68237) Brooklyn is the story of Eilis, a young Irish woman crossing to 1950s America to start the life she couldn't find in Ireland. At first overwhelmed, she soon finds her feet and the love of her life until tragedy and an unexpected match leaves her torn between her lives in Brooklyn and Ireland.The focus of the movie is place strongly on Eilis and her personal struggles; her sense of loneliness and vulnerability being homed in on by the director in an effort to elicit an emotional response, the beautiful musical score went a long way ensuring this hit the mark most times (though the emotion of the opening scenes and some in the third act felt very contrived). The introverted personality that we follow for the opening of the movie made for an uninteresting protagonist, aimlessly plodding along until she finds love in the form of an Italian plumber (yes, really...no, his name isn't Mario).However, the slow start is soon made up for. Set in an idyllic alternate Brooklyn adhering to the stereotypical 'American Dream' holding a quietly romantic tone throughout (as dictated by lead Saoirse Ronan) as the couple fall in love in the most unabashedly cheesy but endearing way. It didn't feel like anything new but it did feel very well done, in large part to the charming performances of Ronan and Cohen throughout.Following this, the movie began to outstay its welcome, the effect lack of a fleshed out secondary cast were felt and my attention would waver a bit as the third act commenced, suffering from the same forced emotion of the opening scenes of the movie. While the dichotomy of Eilis' identity was well-established, the film was taken over by an oppressively overly-sentimental tone which made me feel detached from the movie rather than investing me deeper. Brooklyn is a slow-burning love story and a unique immigrant story centred on the identity crisis of Eilis, though it suffers from some drawbacks; most notably a lackluster secondary cast and contrived attempts at sentimentality in places. Despite this, it's still something I'd recommend for its lovable protagonists (Ronan and Cohen) and their winning performances.

merelyaninnuendo BrooklynEven though the issues interfered here is light as a chip, the suave tone of it which was set from the first frame gives it enough gravitas to meddle the emotions and feelings of the audience. Brooklyn is a light drama feature that raises some genuine family and society issues in a mild and amusing tone with enough material to feed the audience. John Crowley gets it right this time and his execution is plausible here along with Nick's tight adaptation from the novel and perfectly edited feature with reasonable runtime. And in the end, it is a captain's cruise and Saoirse Ronan sails it through each and every phase offering comfortable ride to the viewers with a great supporting cast like Domhnall. Brooklyn's short runtime, fast paced screenplay, majestic performance and a perfect execution favors in all accounting it into far better than one could have expected.

o-31546 I wasn't really feeling this movie, when I first heard about it but, it had caught my attention. I finally watched it recently and it was perfect. I am very picky when it comes to romance moves but, Brooklyn blew me away. I am going to be reading the novel soon, Brooklyn is definitely one of my favorites.Really enjoyed it. Went from a perfectly pleasant coming of age story to some real deep meaning about identity, home, love, and career. Didn't see any problems with it. It got pretty dramatic and heavy at times, all while sticking with the same tone. I guess the only issue I had with it is that it was kind of slow at the beginning and I wasn't absolutely in love with it.--- From Yidioo

Fallen Eye A charming story, with an admirable cast and lovable characters. Brooklyn narrates a very grounded, and even better; relatable, story in a very appealing and likable way.This movie is about family, home, loss, choice and of course, love, and it melds it all together so well. Saoirse Ronan is incredibly captivating and never drops the ball once. She is an absolute joy to watch, and this role was tailor made for her, and she executed it with class.Ermory Cohan, though he too was very impressive, I feel was just a little bit miscast. Ermory has a look about him that screams "bad guy", that had me concerned for the most part, that he would turn into an abusive dolt. If the character was meant to seem that way for the plot, he would've been perfect, but Tony is innocent and "sweet", and Ermory threw me off from time to time.From there, the character dynamics were a pleasure. Eilis and Rose, Mary and Rose, Eilis and Mary. Eilis and her boarding house mates. Eilis and her best friend, Eilis and Jim, Eilis and the witch and of course, Eilis and Tony.Brooklyn is a definite must watch. Its simplicity is quite simply, delightful. A firm 8/10.
