A good movie about racism in the SOUTH during the 60's. But that is a time gone in the USA. Now it is Hollywood showing racism in every movie as a new topic. Ironic, now the rich in Hollywood exploit poor immigrants as the HELP in their…

Moving film uncovers the hearts of people: pride, arrogance, humility, empathy ... so many emotions. Viola and Octavia are sensational.

It was different seeing Emma Stone in the movie version. So all in all a good movie and book.

This is an excellent movie on pretty much all fronts. Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer, and Emma Stone provide amazing performances. The script is incredibly well-written and executed. The pacing, cutting, and shooting all work out very very…

Because of the subject matter it's hard say was a good movie. But it was I enjoyed this movie it made me choke up few times. It was amazing how these women were able to handle all that stress they were going through.

Really liked this movie and it follows the book pretty well. All of the performances were great. I do recommend reading the book.

The movie puts you into a different world where you forget about the cast doing the performance and feel like you are looking at something in a different era. When I looked at the cast I was surprised to learn these are the same…

An often very funny movie set in a terribly non-funny time and place. Quite the moving film. It's a must-see film.

The Help is an amazing movie; the plot, acting, and overall dedication of detail in this film are flawless. This movie focuses on the role of black women in the 1960s, outlining their work as housekeepers for white families. As an…

Really very good. Strong cast, well paced, great writing. Snapshot of the very racist Mississippi in the 60s, its difficult territory, deftly handled. Recommend.

Loved the audiobook and the movie really brought it to life. Octavia Spencer deserved every one of the awards she earned for her fabulous performance including: BAFTA, Golden Globe, SAG, Critics' Choice, and Academy Award for Best…

What a powerhouse group of top women actors! This is a not widely recognized gem well worth seeing.

Never realized all the indignities Southern black maids had to endure. Strange how the maids were expected to clean the toilets but weren't allowed to use them. I give Skeeter a lot of credit in having the courage to expose what was…
