Sinners

Absolutely stunning in IMAX with Laser. The different aspect ratios made the key scenes hit even harder. I hope they include them on the Blu-ray.  Maybe even more thrilling the second time around. The emotional beats work just as well as the dramatic ones. So effective and emotional. The horror of white supremacy and black resilience in the face of it. I just wish for a more inspired and thought out climax. It’s the one part of the film that I think plays it safe which is odd for a film that doesn’t before or after. MBJ is great as well as the entire cast. Score is an all-timer and Ludwig is one of the GOATs at this point. I’m definitely a fan of Ryan Coogler now and I can’t wait to see what he makes next. My main takeaway is that this is about marginalized people’s resilience. Will you dim your light and suppress yourself for fear of attracting the evil leeches? Will you “put that guitar down?” Never. Death would be a better option than not living at all.
