I try to avoid reading the description when I’m about to watch a movie or tv show. Well, even if I had read the description for this film it wouldn’t have made a difference. I have to admit, I was a little puzzled as to why Emily, (who's a kindergarten teacher) would encourage an elementary school student to confront a custodian about mopping while he’s still at school. Even though it’s clearly after school and everyone else has left for the day. However, once the swastika carved into the pie was revealed at the mixer, everything quickly began to make sense. These white women who had regular jobs and presented themselves as something different publicly were actually white supremacists. I can’t say that I was surprised, but I will admit I didn’t see that coming. Overall, the film was a clear reminder that ppl show you who they want you to see, until it’s time to show you who they really are. And like most of the ppl in the world who think the way these women think, they’re usually missing the point. They’re upset with everyone accept themselves. To them, It’s usually everyone else’s fault why they aren’t where they feel they should be in life. If ppl who think this way really looked at the history of this country, they’d know that the NAs, AAs, Asian Americans, Hispanics and of course the Jews are the ones who should feel slighted and down right angry about the way they have and still are treated in this country. The worst thing you could ever do to another human being is dehumanize them. And at the end of the day the women in this film dehumanized anyone who didn’t look like them. Therefore they proceeded to kill without hesitation or remorse. I encourage everyone to watch this film and remind themselves that this is the world we live in.

Overall I think the show has been interesting enough to keep my attention. It is definitely worth watching. That being said, things are moving at a snail’s pace so far. There are several questions that I feel should’ve been answered by now. Three episodes in. I guess you can say that I’m all in at this point. Hopefully things will start to pick up though. Also I want to acknowledge the women who are portraying the strippers. These women are ultra talented. Their athleticism and creativity is unmatched. In closing I have a tiny gripe with their “country grammar.” I’m from a small city in southwest Georgia. I’d like to think I’m qualified to say that their southern accents are difficult to stomach. Yet and still if you have not viewed this show yet. You’re doing yourself a disservice.

I’m 46 years old. I’ve been a huge Michael Jordan fan since his rookie season back in ‘84. I remember vividly how those “Bad Boy” Piston teams. Physically beat up the Bulls, Michael Jordan in particular. I also remember how the Bulls finally broke through in 1991 on their way to the franchise’s first NBA championship. What followed no one expected, not even me. A total of 6 championships over an 8 year span. In 1998 Michael Jordan’s popularity was at an all time high. He was a global icon at 35 years old. There was no social media or the 24 hour news cycle. Which made his iconic status even more impressive. Whenever there was an opportunity to see Jordan and the Bulls play it was considered an epic event. This documentary captures this along with tons of behind the scenes footage that hasn’t seen the light of day until now. Although I remember a lot of what transpired that year. It’s pretty cool to take a walk down memory lane. If you weren’t born back then or too young to remember watching this team and the hype surrounding them. Then you’re definitely in for a treat!

I went to see this film over the weekend and, I can’t stop thinking about it. There were so many messages and moments during the film that pulled almost every emotion out of me. I’m a huge fan of Sci Fi Action films, and The Creator definitely did not disappoint. This film is so much more than an action film, it’s also a love story. John David Washington Mr. Consistent, and as usual he delivered the goods. The lovely and talented Gemma Chan delivered as well. I would’ve given this film a 5 star review, but I was a little disappointed with the ending, for personal reasons. Not because it wasn’t a great film though. Anyway, even if you’re not into the whole Sci Fi thing this movie is still worth the price of admission. Do yourself a favor and take the family to see it, you’ll be glad you did.
