Radium Girls

Read the book, don't waste your time with this movie!

Important story but poor acting and directing. Liked some of the period clothes and sets but there were also many errors that the editor & director missed...50 star flag, swing music. I almost recommended this to my daughters. Decided the cons outweighed the pros.

Powerful piece of history but the movie is bland as could be. Skip this and read the book!

They managed to take a piece of women's history and make it dull. Read the book.

This movie has a good message but it was super boring. I get that this is a historical film, but they could've showed the story from a global scale instead of only focusing on a few characters. As tragic as this story is, I felt little to no emotion for the underdeveloped characters. There was also little scientific evidence revealed, and maybe that's historically accurate, but I just felt like nothing really happened? And I even felt like there wasn't a solution in the end. It was disappointing because I was expecting a more factual storyline with interesting historical details that I didn't know about, but I learned nothing except for the fact that many girls died from unsafe work conditions, which I had already known from the trailer. Instead, I watched a very emotional main character break down from watching her loved ones slowly die.
