I thought this was very well done. I like the other version a little better, as it delves more thoroughly into Louie's conversion and spiritual life and influence. Unlike other ratings, I thought the acting was very good, and also the…

There’s probably a good story there , but it was badly acted and directed, didn’t complete it.

There's nothing wrong with the premise. The problem is that it been done before with variations. Nobody done WWII film on liberation of Aleutian Islands or Southern France (operation Dragoon)

Unbroken is a major motion picture based on the life of Louie Zamperini and there is a very well written book about his life as well. This movie is very emotional. It shows Louie’s life while imprisoned, and many other heartbreaking…

At first I thought it would be boring. In fact , I kept watching it until the end. Honestly it's not very touching and inspiring but you may amaze how Zamperini's physical strength could endure the hardship. Besides, I felt that the…

When it becomes pretty obvious to me that someone is being demonized, I become resistant. It works in the other direction as well, someone is pictured as a saint, it might require something special for me to get on board. I'm all in for…

Zamperini's story is truly awe inspiring and a testament to the tenacity of a man. This film, while hitting the major events in his life, lacks the soul and emotion required to tell his story. I had to turn the film off midway through…

A well done movie about one man's fortitude and endurance. Be sure to watch the bonus feature.

As heartbreaking as it is inspiring, Unbroken tells the story of a man who struggles through a war, through torture, and through impossible odds to become a better man than he was before. Somehow, Zamperini used his experiences to improve…

A few years ago I watched the cable broadcast of the interview of Angelina Jolie in reference to the back story of this movie "Unbroken". They went into more detail about how he suffered alcoholism and struggled to finally reach the point…

Absolutely a super movie they do not make them like this very often.

This movie, based on a true story, is both heartbreaking and uplifting at the same time. The direction is excellent, and so are the actors. I was impressed and moved by the main character's strength and integrity.

This Angelina Jolie directed, and Joel and Ethan Coen written film, depicts the life of a 1936 Olympian runner that endures brutal conditions in a Japanese prison camp. It seemed somewhat long, but did show how the human spirit survived…

Terrific story!

Well made movie. Cut short, undeep, and feels rushed. It only covers Louis Zamperini's time in the 1940s and some scenes in his childhood. I do not recommend to watch this movie as a summary of the book.

Wonderful movie! I'm in awe of this man and truly inspired by his will to survive. Amazing true story is better then fiction.

Movie is well done and suitable for children in middle school and up, a true story rarely found to teach both resilience and man's will power to survive. Louie's life is indeed a life well-lived to exemplify and teach us the power of…

I thoroughly enjoyed this film. High quality production great story full of human interest, based on real life events. Recommend to all.

Nov 19 2016, I am on the edge of my seat, even though I know exactly what happens. This movie is so well done, it's almost as amazing as Louis's life story......well, not really, it's pretty hard to beat a life story like that. I have to…

It's hard not to be inspired by this WWII airman who survived 47 days floating in a raft after a plane crash in the Pacific, only to be found and imprisoned by the Japanese. For Louis Zamperini to live to be 97 and use his life to lend…

The first half of the movie is slow and boring. The second half is very good. A very good movie. I also watched special features of an interview to Louis Zamperini. He is a great person of forgiveness.

This was a very good movie. Angeline Jolie did a very good job on it. But she could have taken out the rough language.I know the prisoners were in a rough situation but for the movie she could have left the language out.I really did love…
