From Kathryn Bigelow, the award-winning director of THE HURT LOCKER and ZERO DARK THIRTY, comes this gripping film based on the true story of one of the most terrifying secrets in American history. John Boyega (STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS) plays a security guard caught in the crossfire after a late-night police raid sparks a violent revolt that spirals out of control and turns the city into a war zone.

Horrific & extremely hard to watch, this film really captures a very dark time in our history that's still going on to this day. Gripping, graphic & highly emotional, this stays with you long after the final credits. It's hard to comprehend the cruelty & injustice of the human race.

Bad casting. The two english actors and one irish actorJohn boyega, will poulter and actor jack rayner could connect to there roles. Sometimes it can work with an non american being cast in these types of movies, but not this time.

Hard going in the best possible way. If this film doesn't boil your blood I don't know what will. Brilliantly acted, superb pacing, a fantastic piece of cinema.
