So much average

Am I Missing Something?

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

I consider BlacKkKlansman an especially important message for today's political climate, where radical beliefs have began to try to bend social norms in supoort of racial discrimination. As a film, the acting is strong throughout (namely Washington, Driver, Harriet), along with the cinematography and music. My major qualms came with the film's choppy pacing and character development, rushing in certain points and dragging to a halt in others.

John David and Adam Driver are excellent at portraying the same Klan infiltrator as they struggle internally with personal conflicts over Black Power/Pride and being Jewish, respectively. Some funny moments, some sad moments and some or should I say plenty, hard-to-take racist dialogue reminiscent of then and NOW. Good music. Excellent movie that is worth seeing.

I would be surprised if this movie didn't snag a best movie nomination. The disparate ratings for this movie seem to be par for the course for movies with a strong political bent, in these supercharged times. But this is a well crafted movie with a strong but not well known cast. The adapted screenplay and cinematography are first rate, and some of the scenes are imposing. One in particular, members of the local kkk watching the 1915 Birth of a Nation film was stomach churning. There was a scene where a police sargeant challenged the assertion by the black officer that America would never elect a person like David Duke to the presidency. As current eventshave shown we are capable of that and more. This is a movie that should be talked about.

This movie was so inaccurate, I'm not sure if it should be considered a satire. It seriously deviates away from the book and actual history in order to preach more leftist politics at you. It takes current events out of context (the trump quote) and doesn't apologize for it. Do yourself a favor and go read actual stories of the actual events that took place rather than watching it through the viewpoints of ignorant director spike lee.
