About this movie

Set in America in 1962, Green Book tells the heart-warming true story of Tony Lip (Viggo Mortensen), a working-class Italian-American bouncer who takes on a job as a chauffeur for Dr. Don Shirley (Mahershala Ali), a highly-educated African-American classical pianist.

Ratings and reviews

Surprisingly pedestrian for a film featuring a car. Embarrassingly PC, cliched and predictable - 'Driving Miss Daisy' for woke white folks. On the plus side it does give us Viggo channelling every Italian mobster stereotype.whilst keeping a straight face.

Flat and outdated. Spend your time listening to Don Shirely's own work as you read about how this film plays fast and loose with the truth in order to create a likeable white protagonist for audiences.

Great story, great acting along with sense of depth and humour which gives you the heart warming feel. Totally recommend this movie. Don't listen to the 1, 2 and 3 star reviews some are clearly racist.
