60 of 128 · most liked firstThe only mainstream movie I've seen that portrays the Black Panthers even remotely close to historical reality, is "Judas and the Black Messiah." Strong recommend. A lot of people today say terms like "Rainbow coalition" and "It's not race, it's class" but have no idea where these terms come from.

positive · AI labelView post →Netflix Just Quietly Released the Best Dystopian Sci-Fi Movie of the Year [The Kitchen]. > The film is something of a big deal, despite its unheralded Netflix premiere. The Kitchen marks Daniel Kaluuya’s (Nope, Judas and the Black Messiah) directorial debut, alongside short film director Kibwe Tavares. Kaluuya also co-wrote the film with Gangs of London’s Joe Murtagh, cementing a vision of dystopian, near-future London alongside an unconventional tale of found family. It’s Blokamp-esque in…

neutral · AI labelView post →Meh. Still unimpressed with Pattinson, though he has a GREAT agent. I think one day we'll look back kn JUDAS AND THE BLACK MESSIAH and be gobsmacked by the talent in that movie. I was at the time. Still, its Stanfield for me. Even his low stakes stuff is great.

neutral · AI labelView post →8. Daniel Kaluuya and Lakeith Stanfield give two fantastic performances in “Judas And The Black Messiah” - giving real dramatic heart to the retelling of real events. The pacing gets a bit lost just after halfway through the film but that’s a minor quibble about a film that delivers the key scenes

neutral · AI labelView post →"Sinners" was excellent but never going to be a major Oscar contender even if there WEREN'T bigotry in Hollywood. "Moonlight,' "Fences," "Judas and the Black Messiah..." (among others) were 'Oscar' movies. "Sing Sing" was an 'Oscar' movie... and "Nickel Boys." They happen

This truly uncompromising film hits hard with powerful performances, sincere writing, and impressive fidelity to the time, style, and specific events surrounding its subject
positive · AI labelView post →Judas and the Black Messiah was an exquisite movie title. Truly.
positive · AI labelView post →Judas and the Black Messiah feels like it's become a "forgotten" movie, and that's a real shame. This feels like it wanted to be a biopic for Fred Hampton and Bill O'Neal, but at the same time wanted it to be a political drama. The criticisms that some had are fair (1/2)
