Danielle Solzman

Kennedy fans might appreciate Thirteen Days for what it is but the film could do better in putting the right faces up front.

I find vertiginous and very palpitating what happens in this political thriller, directed by Roger Donaldson, about one of the most tense moments of the Kennedy administration: the Cuban missile crisis. [Full review in Spanish]

It really is the Cuban Missile Crisis played out on a grand scale, and, in some respects, this grandiosity is permissible.

An outstanding movie for families with older kids.
