Sean did a great job with this movie. I don't know if the plot is very believable in todays time but I really think that Sean Penn made the movie. I also look for him to be nominated for some type of award because of this. It is kinda refreshing to see a movie so out of the box as this.

I knew nothing about this movie when i bought the ticket. I would normally have never went and saw it, but im glad that i did. it actually made me think about the way that i looked at gay people. I never had hatred or anything towards them. I just thought that it was there lifestyle, their choice. The movie made me actually realize that a gay politician may be the best thing ever for this country. The caring and uplifting spirit Harvey Milk had showed real enthuasism and caring. I know that it would never happen in the world we live in today, but one day it will. This made a what if statement, and i think that when the day straight people are put to the test they will see it isn't that bad.

Sean Penn was completely believable and gave a compelling performance. Josh Brolin and James Franco as well took their characters and gave them conviction, convincing personality and depth. The story is amazing, the movie has good timing and flow. Go see... Read more

I just saw this film today and was stunned into silence. As someone personally affected by inequality in the legal arena, the film was particularly relevant for me. However, the courageous and bold performances by the members of the cast, lent... Read more

I didn't really enjoy this movie too much. Sean Penn does a decent job leading this movie, but overall it was missing something. The story wasn't that exciting to me, and a lot of the moments in the movie felt forced. I didn't find myself laughing, or even very engaged throughout most of the movie. The story wasn't nearly as sad to me as I think it should have been. Perhaps I've just become desensitized to violence, but I really wanted more from this movie. I'm sure it will get nods given the subject matter, and people will call it a brave story of a true hero. To me though, while I realized the importance of the actual individual Harvey Milk, as a movie, this one just didn't do it for me.

With a sold out theater on a Thursday night, Milk did not disappoint. Though at times it seemed slow, overall the movie was well written and historically accurate. Sean Penn had another brilliant performance along with James Franco. This movie is... Read more

educational, empowering, emotional, moving. Must be seen by anyone celebrating human rights and dignity. A must see for gay rights activists and those fighting the line between conseratives and libers.... Read more

Since Milk is only playing at two theaters in the this half of the state, I had to make an effort to see the movie. It didn't grab me from the very begining as I'd thought it would, however the opening... Read more
