Kinky Boots

The reviews of this movie here clearly hint at the qualities of this film. Well, you can be the judge of that. Who would like to watch a guy who ends up owning a shoe factory and who gets help saving the factory from a black transvestite, who by the way is portrayed excellently by Chiwetel Ejiofor. The English sometimes have the gift for absurdity in stories and you get a story like that here. If you do devide to give this movie a chance, I think you will end up like Nick Frost, who was the reason I watched this movie in the first place. If you want to see how, do watch this film. I don’t think it will be a waste of your time and on top of that you will experience a story that is definitely based on fact. (03/07/2017)

I like the subject matter, and I like how bizarre it is - by which I mean the plot - because the legacy of a shoe company that only a queer queen can save is just brilliantly daft, but it has its charm. Acting-wise, especially thanks to the performance of Chiwetel Ejiofor, who can't sing very well, the film is worth watching. You just mustn't be prejudiced like some of the characters. (01/26/2018)
