12 Years a Slave

☆☆☆☆1/2
+
Directed by Steve McQueen (“Shame”), “12 Years A Slave” is the incredible story (based on actual events) of Solomon Northup (fantastic performance by Chiwetel Ejiofor), a free New York citizen who was kidnapped and forced into slavery on a New Orleans plantation in the 1880s.

Look for Oscar nominations for this film!

All star cast includes: Michael Fassbender, Brad Pitt, Benedict Cumberbatch, Sarah Paulson, Paul Giamatti, Paul Dano, Alfre Woodard, Lupita Nyong’o, and Adepero Oduye
_
All the cameos are actually a little distracting.


Rated R
2 hr. 13 min.
