For such a historically important story, it’s a shame this movie didn’t have better writing and directing. The cast was there. Just lacking the other 2 crucial elements.

Pretty decent but could’ve been so much more. Wish they focused less on making it an action epic and more on the plot and characters

“Turbulence’ll blow your black ass out the sky.”
The average white person knows how racism has affected society, but the average white person isn’t ready to take the leap to address and fix it. I guess that’s the point of the movie that I’m taking.
