Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The decision to follow a non-linear timeline for this movie is an odd one. At no time did the actors faces change over the course of the years that passed, leaving it to the viewer to figure it out with clothing and hairstyles. I would imagine this would be confusing for some audience members not familiar with the story. For me, it just kept me from enjoying the more intimate moment's as the film was flashing back and forth ..starting near the end, going to the beginning then jumping to the middle...I didn't even get misty eyed about Beth..yaaawn. Then there were odd casting decisions. Amy, played by a fine actress, looked 20 yrs old throughout the ENTIRE movie..she looked 20 at age 12 and she looked 20 7 yrs later...it was jarring. Teddy/Laurie, please, he also looked the same age, and even a bit younger than his years when he eventually gets married. Looked like a teenage boy the entire time, seriously nothing manly came across...but that might be the writing which made all the men move to the very background of this production. The "woke" preaching was distracting, I also didn't care for the final ending in which Alcott/Jo has a spin on the ending.. I think this would have been a much better movie, had it been about Alcott writing Little Women instead..
