    ★★★½

    Nice little script with a natural feel, basically like a play. I connected to the themes and loved the ending where pain is voiced, but nothing really changes (for now).

    A terrible melodrama with some decent performances. Fun enough to laugh, but not good enough to actually enjoy at all.

    Thoroughly entertaining and captivating. A tightly wound story that pays off in every way, especially after another watch hunting for easter eggs and hints. The immersion with the main character (Kaluuya is pretty good!) that happens both visually and narratively is extremely well done, and the moments of both eery fear and sharp terror are communicated amazingly well. Well deserved Oscar and exciting directorial debut!

    Maybe a little too sad for life. Wonderfully shot, a few metaphors fly over my head. Overall enjoyable cinematic experience, obviously a lot of thought put into this despite the Book of Job bashing over your head.
