Really not good. Not only is it yet another social justice propaganda film, it's bad storytelling, dialogue and acting. Not to mention it portrays white people as comically evil. Don't waste your money.

Enjoyable - probably the sort of dream people have after seeing 12 years a slave. I did yell at my screen near end, so glad watched at home.

I sobbed. This movie really got to me. When I saw zombie Drumpf supporters complaining about "BLM propaganda", I laughed at them outing themselves as racists. I appreciated the one person saying as much. Another person complained about inconcistencies/continuum, but if you actually watch the whole movie, it makes complete sense. For all BIPOC: I am so, so sorry for the generational trauma, and what continues today to endanger your safety and well being. I am trying my best to be a good ally.
