Sinners

I’ll admit that I’m a little late to the party, since I missed it in cinemas and I waited every day for a rerelease. And alas, it was announced that it would be returning to IMAX cinemas across the Halloween period. And obviously, I grabbed myself a ticket! This was my first ever time going to an IMAX cinema (baby’s first imax trip) and this was the perfect film for it. I genuinely do not believe any other screen could do this masterpiece of a film justice.  I have so much to say but at the same time I am just gobsmacked. I had veeeery high expectations for Sinners, and not only were those expectations met, they were exceeded!! HOOOOOOOOOOOLYYYYYY SHITTTTTTTT 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Sinners is an absolute work of art. From the minute it started, I was utterly entranced and I didn’t want to look away. I was unaware that there were so many songs in this, but they were all excellent! The score itself was amazing too. I don’t think I actually breathed or blinked during THAT one sequence. All the characters were great and the performances are exquisite - specifically from Miles Caton (my jaw DROPPED when I saw “introducing” before his name in the credits). Just the entire film, man. It’s so, so fucking good. It’s outstanding. I’ve never seen anything like it, and it’s beautiful to see an idea as original as this one be so successful, because it’s unbelievably deserved. I’m still processing everything I have just watched as I listen to the wonderful soundtrack and pick my jaw off from the floor. But I think this might just be my number one film of the year. Ryan Coogler knocked it out the park with this one. The hype is REAL 🗣 (Also those vampire dances were so enchanting my ass would’ve fallen for it immediately and I would’ve been SO DEAD 💔) EDIT: it’s been a few hours since I watched and I’m still genuinely buzzing, this film is genuinely brilliant WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW and I’m so glad I’ve finally watched it. It feels good just seeing it in my recent watches :))!!
