Feb 21, 2020 · But the movie is uneven in tone and in its sense of its audience—it is too sad and violent for young children and too superficial for older audiences. The many-times-filmed story has here been sanitized a bit for modern audiences (less racism, for example), but it is rougher than the typical PG film, including animal abuse, and sad deaths of both canines and humans.
Mar 20, 2020 · “The Banker” has the look and feel of an idolizing biopic. The movie glosses over several events in Garrett’s life and rewrites portions of his own personal history, as well as Eunice’s role during the time depicted on-screen (to say nothing of the recent allegations of sexual abuse that came out against former co-producer and son of the main character Bernard Garrett Jr.).
