In conclusion, Hidden Figures is a beautiful and heartwarming film that just gets better. However, the goal of the movie seems to be letting viewers know who Katherine Johnson, Mary Jackson, and Dorothy Vaughan are, and in that, they have succeeded. So it’s quite dumb complaining about the inaccuracies of Hidden Figures, but at the same time, a biopic can feel boring especially when it doesn’t offer anything else to the plate. With Hans Zimmer doing the score, as well as Pharrell Williams AND Benjamin Wallfisch (who did the music for Blade Runner 2049), the movie is practically set to have loads of Oscar nominations.Īs for any biopic film, it’s a given that many circumstances are dramatized for cinematic reasons. With them as the protagonists, you just feel good throughout the seconds, even with the challenges they faced.įrom a technical standpoint, the film is visually good and especially sounds amazing. Henson’s fantastic, chilling performance as Katherine Johnson. You have Octavia Spencer as the sassy Dorothy Vaughan, Janelle Monae as the determined Mary Jackson, and Taraji P. What I really loved about this film is the performances of the trio, who were the main driving force of Hidden Figures. Yet it manages to convey enough drama and emotions to hit us right in the feels.
The tone remains light-hearted and a bit comedic from beginning to end, downplaying some situations, one in which Katherine runs more than a mile to go to a racially-segregated toilet.
