robert kearns vs erin brockovich

The thing that brought these 2 movies together is that they both got that justice that they were after. I really enjoyed also how these two movies focus on how the underdog gets screwed over and then they work their hardest to get what they deserve but at the same time they are working against huge companies that could easily ruin their lives and make them miserable. Both of these people worked their tails off and it paid off they are showing that big companies can’t take advantage of regular everyday people without consequence. I think that they showed immense bravery. At the same time I think that at the beginning Kerns went about it the wrong way and for that he was wasting his time. It took him forever to sue them and over time he lost a lot of his life, and ruined his marriage. I feel bad for him but at the end of the whole thing he got what he wanted. Erin helped a lot of families with her lawsuit which was very heartwarming. I think that working hard and not letting people take advantage of you can pay off in the end, but I guess not every time. It’s sad that companies think that just because someone is not as educated as them or they don’t have a lot of money that they can walk all over them and take whatever they want. Erin was an incredible person who cared about many people and that’s why she put herself out there to help. Kerns wanted to show that this has happened to a lot of other people and it’s not right. I agree with them taking a stand and doing what is right even though a lot of other people thought they should drop it or settle they knew that it wasn’t an option.
