  • [9]RT19 @RT19TMDB review · Jan 23, 2026 · Rated 3/10

    I'm not sure how this movie can get such great reviews. The acting isn't particularly good, and the plot is about as deep as a beer can. It might be okay to watch once, but it's not really good.

  • [12]Brent Marchant @Brent_MarchantTMDB review · Apr 20, 2025 · Rated 8/10

    It’s always gratifying to see a filmmaker take a big step up in his or her career, and that’s precisely what writer-director Ryan Coogler has done in his latest offering, a project that reflects a significant jump in the depth, artistry and sophistication of his creative output. Coming on the heels of his successes in “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” (2022), “Creed” (2015) and “Fruitvale Station” (2013), Coogler has …

  • [13]Xtram555mo @Xtram555moTMDB review · May 4, 2025 · Rated 10/10

    Sinners started off similar to a gritty drama in the Deep South, every character felt so built and I was fully invested. Then the vampire elements started twirling in. That first fade into the moon, the guitar riff, unbelievably hard Mr. Coogler. It gave a feeling I haven’t felt since watching dune 2. Oh and the scene where we go through the history and future of music, best scene of the decade maybe? That juke …

  • [1]rssp55 @rssp55TMDB review · Apr 26, 2025 · Rated 8/10

    I don't think I liked it as much as most people seem to, and definitely not as much as the critics, but think this movie nailed about 85% of what it tried to. The setting, music, costumes, makeup, gore, and effects were exceedingly well done. The film is well-acted (Delroy Lindo was the standout) and it was definitely worth seeing in the theatre. My only complaints are that the ending felt rushed, there are a couple …

  • [2]Chandler Danier @chandlerdanierTMDB review · Jun 3, 2025 · Rated 7/10

    Full disclosure, I've been to Clarksdale and it is the best. This film is like Morgan Freeman's juke joint. I liked the compact, intimate nature of Red's more. Middle of this is draggy. Parties aren't that fun to watch. There are a lot of quick and intense action bits to wake up for but at the same time...it's long. Why do movies have to be so long? Why does the ending of this have to be even longer? Why did …

How this was made: an AI model (deepseek-v4-flash) read 34 of the 299 public posts we collected about this film and wrote the summary, likes and dislikes, citing the posts behind each point ([n] opens the post). A second AI pass checked every statement against the posts it cites; anything it could not match was removed, and code removed any statement with quotation marks, numbers that are not in the posts, or unattributed claims about people. The split is counted from the posts’ own ratings. Generated Oct 9, 2026. Method

Critics, per Wikipedia

Sinners grossed $280 million in the United States and Canada, and $91.6 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $371.6 million. Some publications said the film needed to gross $170–185 million to break even when factoring in its production budget, Coogler's first-dollar gross, premium video-on-demand, and streaming deals with Prime and Netflix. Other industry sources placed the break-even point at $200–225 million, with Puck going as high as $300 million, because of the film's budget, estimated $50–60 million marketing spend, and the presumption that theaters keep half of ticket sales. Many fans of the film and industry figures like Ben Stiller criticized media coverage,…
