Crispy Tha Black

A minamilistic acting tour de force! Denzel still has it and makes me feel! The man never ceases to electrify, and plays the main antagonist role well. I got medieval 'Training Day' vibes. I give props to all of the actors for being able to act as well as remember their lines using these impressive, yet difficult accents. I know it would be quite the task! That ending song is so dope too as well as the rest of the soundtrack! No unecessary and excessive explicit content, and minimal violence. Great dialogue from which you can learn now defunct ways of speaking. It never lost its momentum to me, but I know people with short attention spans or who like constant action should probably shy away from this film. It really demands all of your attention, and, well, it deserves it!

I will greatly miss Chadwick Boseman and the charisma and sheer electricity he brought to the screen! He was such a powerful actor and he really had me feeling him and his pain throughout this film. He does the best acting that I've ever seen, hands down! And I'm not just saying this due to the circumstances. Just watch the "where is your god!" scene to see what I mean! My heart was pounding and I really cared about his character because I could somewhat relate with him. He steals every scene!!! And that is no small feat considering Viola Davis! Colman Domingo and Glynn Turman do superbly as Cutler and Toledo respectively! My goodness this movie was one of the best I've ever seen! But hey, what can you expect from an August Wilson story, based on true events and people, AND produced by none other than Denzel Washington!? It's like poetry that Denzel kinda jumpstarted Chadwick's career and now he is the one who produced his final film! Thank you all, cast and crew, for your hard work and for such an immensely beautiful and touching piece of art! Thank you Chadwick Boseman for all of your hard work, energy, perseverance, and for being such an inspiration and role model! I shall miss you sir for you were the epitome of a true hero and a legend! Many salutes! GO WATCH MA RAINEY'S BLACK BOTTOM!!! P.S. I believe this is the first movie I've seen where Viola Davis doesn't cry all snotty, but she sure does sweat a lot! Must've been hot with all the electric acting and chemistry on that set!
