This movie is a must see for everyone. It shows strength and determination, no matter what obstacles you face. Although, I didn't see it on the phone, I did see it on TV. The women who portrayed the women of NASA were spectacular and my hats go off to the producers and directors. I hope we get a chance to see more history made movies that shows the contribution of Black Americans and Native Americans, and other Nationalities that makes up this country called the United States of America. 💛🦅

A good story suffers in the face of a white savior subplot. Especially a fictional one, portraying the accomplishments of these extraordinary women as otherwise impossible had a non-existent white man performed some act of kindness which never happened in reality. It sends the wrong message for the simple sake of pandering to white audiences and to get noticed at by the Oscar's.

Review Hidden Figures The Film "Hidden Figures" directed by Theodore Melfi in the year 2016, is based on real events, tells an story about the struggles and willpower, but not of individual glory. Set in 1960s Virginia, the film centers on three pioneering African American women whose calculations for NASA were integral to several historic space missions, including John Glenn’s successful orbit of the Earth. These women Katherine Johnson, Mary Jackson, and Dorothy Vaughan were superlative mathematicians and engineers despite starting their careers in segregation-era America and facing discrimination at home, at school, and at work. The film is good, but also has its small weaknesses, but first lets take a look to the tings i liked. The pacing is on Point, it slowly introduces you to the 3 main Characters and in the middle there also is some tension being build up. In the end everyone is happy. Therefor it is a great film for an family movie session. Now to the less polished parts of this movie, from the beginning you know how it will end, because everybody with a little bit of general knowledge, knows that in the end the Americans won the Space race. In general i would recommend you watch this film your self, because the real Story is told in an interesting way and you will get inspired.
