Free State of Jones Review

Free State of Jones Review

Review of the latest Matthew McConaughey movie, Free State of Jones, a docu-drama that does well with documentary and not so well with the drama side.

I normally enjoy the historical docu-drama, but Free State of Jones felt more like a two and a half hour-long romp through history with very little climax glossing over the war of a war drama with a confused sub-plot mixed in about the main character’s great grandson’s trial – which all is completely factual and an interesting history story, but make for a boring movie.

Andy G for short, is a digital media designer for a local college, previously for some radio stations. If you’re wondering what a digital media designer is, he helps make the internet look pretty. When not at work, he is either at the gym or involved in generally nerdy activities.
