Walt Before Mickey (2015)

What a movie, very good actors and a unpredictable story. The movie is exciting until the end. Watch the movie if you love inspiring movies. You can learn a lot from the movie.Like that you should never give up your dreams. And that not everything in the life will go the way you want it.People often assume that successful people have become successful without problems.But the truth is that everyone has ups and downs. This is not a fairy tail it is based on a true story. If it was up to me the movie could last longer.I found it really good.The story is so good that it feels if you're there. At sometimes i got the feeling that i wanted to help Walt. A really great movie.

Who better than teen movie "American Pie"'s own Thomas Ian Nicholas to play one of the most celebrated, influential, and history-changing personalities of all time, the creator of Mickey Mouse himself, Walt Disney?In a casting choice that I'm sure will baffle most, Nicholas, with his boyish good looks (or despite them) is most surely not the right choice for the role. But it's not "Walt Before Mickey's" only pitfall, even if it's the worst.As a whole, the movie feels flat, uninspired, and at times downright depressing, bordering on awful late night soap opera drama from old days that have since been forgotten.There's no one of particular note on the cast, the story (as often happens with biopics) feels rushed, while at times slumping away, and the final product just feels very unfinished. (The sound people in particular, it seems, couldn't have cared less edgewise.)Which is actually sad, considering the subject matter at hand: the rise of an immensely prominent figure, not just in the United States, but across the world. There simply wouldn't have been a "Snow White", a "Cinderella", and countless other animated works of fiction that brought a whole genre to the mainstream and made Disney the household powerhouse that it is today, were it not for Walt Disney.I checked the IMDb rating before even watching the movie, and was rather surprised. "How can it possibly be so poor, given the subject?" And alas, unfortunately it is.So other than Tom Hanks' "Saving Mr. Banks", which deals with a more advanced stage in Walt Disney's career, I'm afraid we'll have to wait for a movie that will actually pay a worthy homage to the man himself, and will be heralded in movie history as such.

Stumbled upon this film on Netflix, As a Disney fan I was excited to watch it.The movie has a "beginner film maker" feel to it, but that is OK as that is essentially what it is.The film was simple and easy to watch, sure some of the acting was a little weak but I enjoyed it.I read all the reviews and people were way to harsh about this film.It was warm and sad with the expected happy endingSafe for family of all ages, however there is nothing here for kids.Watch it for what it is, enjoy it....

I actually had to stop watching half way through because the film was so painful to watch. I think my biggest mistake was watching "Saving Mr Banks" the night before watching this film. Walt Before Micky certainly tried to recapture the magic so easily conveyed in Saving Me Banks yet failed miserably. Not only were the portrayals of these real people wildly inaccurate, the acting was completely wooden. Everything about the script, direction and acting screamed inexperience and was reminiscent of a school production. I am very disappointed as this could have been a charming film in much the same way Saving Mr Banks made the history of Disney come alive, alas this time around it failed miserably; hopefully one day a remake will do this story justice!
