Review of Judy

Judy (II) (2019)
6/10
Extraordinary Performance, Mediocre Movie
22 July 2020
Yep, the title sums my view on this movie pretty much. Zellweger deserved the Oscar, because this was her movie. This movie would've been way different if it wasn't for Zellweger. The source material in Judy Garland's life is huge but the way they present this is sloppy. Scenes are sometimes rushed and sometimes really long. Side characters were mostly just side characters, they were underdeveloped and the storylines didn't really create an impact(sometimes Zellweger's acting alone made an impact, that's different). The rise and fall of Judy Garland are both really interesting stories and the film doesn't really use them to their full potential. This movie is Renee Zellweger, and that's a fact. If they were to write no script and tell Renee Zellweger to act as Judy Garland it would also work. The movie did its best to give Renee Zellweger an Oscar, other than that they just made a mediocre movie. But you should still check it out, because Zellweger becomes Judy in this movie.
