I wish I lived this I wanted to love this soooo bad but I never quite got there.
Is it intense? Absolutely. The score is amazing and the performances are great especially from Benicio del Toro. Blunt, Kaluuya, and Brolin can do no bad in my eyes and same with Denis so that’s why my expectations were super high. I already want to rewatch because I really want to raise my score but as it stands right now I can’t go no higher than 4 stars.
Clarence Maclin. Wow.
Maclin was going toe to toe with Domingo the whole way, literally! Amazing performances from them both. The rest of the cast was amazing especially given the fact that they are acting as themselves, THEY AREN'T EVEN ACTORS!!! Really went in without knowing anything because this was given zero love from a24 and it should’ve been given all the love.
Stabbing another man 29 times for $1.25 and then using religion to justify that you have changed so you don’t get killed, come on brotha.
