Today's review: Kon-Tiki

 Here's another review I wrote for MovieScene the other day:

Im pretty hapy with how this review turned out, as I am equally pleased with how the movie itself turned out. It was a blast to watch and to review, something I already anticipated considering its fascinating topic: a genuine mix between history and adventure on the high seas, with all kinds of adorable marine creatures to make us wonder. Of course, a bit of spectacle and theatrics has been added to the story to make it more of a true adrenaline rushed adventure flick at times. I don't mind, since no historically themed movie is fully 100% accurate. It's just not possible to make them like that, and as long as they aren't twisting the truth 180 degrees just for entertainment's sake - or worse, for nefarious ideological reasons-  slight alterations I deem to be acceptable. Except for J.J. Abrams' Star Trek of course.
