Rating: 9/10
This is an outstanding film about a story I knew nothing about.
However, my review is more a review of IMDb and its voting system.
I note that this film has, at the time of writing twenty-two 1 star
reviews. Maybe these are genuine but I suspect they are not. For one
thing the film has not had many screenings so have as many as
twenty-two different people really hated it that much?
Secondly, 1 star films do not get selected for the Toronto Film
Festival or for the opening night film for the London Film Festival.
The programmers and selectors of these highly regarded festivals are at
the top of their game and each year they are offered several thousand
films. None of them are going to risk their hard fought reputations on
selecting a bad 1-star film.
My feeling is that these 22 people are members of the KKK who hate
black people or else they are people who are jealous of the those
involved in the production.
Either way IMDb needs to have an algorithm that can deduce whether
these people are genuine, or not. Maybe they are and the press reviews
so far, which rave about the film, are wrong, but maybe these people
are racist bitter bigots who hate the success of others because they
themselves are failures and they have nothing better to do in their
small sad lives but set up false IMDb accounts and vent their spleen in
the only way they can.
